If you weren’t one of the lucky few who was able to secure a spot to this week’s Callous Daoboys K! Pit, then fear not, because the band will be back in the UK again this summer!
With an appearance lined up for Download Festival, the Daoboys have also announced several headline shows on either side of the event, kicking things off at Bristol’s Exchange on June 12, before heading to The Dome in London the following night. Then, after Download on June 14, they’ll hit Glasgow’s Garage Attic.
Speaking to Kerrang! last year about their wild performances, frontman Carson Pace explained: “All those bands that we look up to had the most insane live shows. We try to match that as much as possible. But you can expect to laugh at our shows, too. You can expect to see us having fun up there. A lot of bands in our genre will have these dark, brooding transitions. We’ll transition with Everytime We Touch by Cascada. As much as I’m into tightening up the live show, once we get onstage, it’s like, ‘I don’t care if we play a single right note, as long as we have fun!’”
Tickets for the band’s headline dates go on sale on March 1 at 10am, while you can get your Download tickets right here.
