TOUR | BASHT | UK/EUROPEAN DATES
Dublin’s fast-rising post-punk outfit Basht. are showing no signs of slowing down as they announce an extensive UK and European headline tour for Spring 2027.
Fresh from the release of their critically acclaimed debut album Poor Advice via LAB Records, the band have enjoyed a remarkable breakthrough year. The record debuted in the UK Official Albums Chart Top 40 and claimed the number one spot on Ireland’s Independent Album Chart, cementing Basht. as one of the most exciting new acts to emerge from Ireland in recent years.
As their audience continues to grow, the band are stepping up to larger venues across the UK and Europe, including what will be their biggest headline show to date at London’s iconic O2 Forum on 3 April 2027.
The announcement follows a hugely successful run of sold-out shows across Ireland and the UK, with demand for tickets continuing to increase alongside the band’s rapidly expanding fanbase.
Produced by acclaimed producer Ali Chant, whose impressive résumé includes work with Dry Cleaning, Perfume Genius and PJ Harvey, Poor Advice has already amassed millions of streams. Tracks including Kids Vs Guns, Terror TV, Keira Knightley and Perfume have received widespread support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Radio X and beyond.
The band’s momentum continues this week as they perform a live session for BBC Radio 1’s Future Artists show, further highlighting their growing reputation as one of the most compelling live bands currently emerging from the UK and Irish alternative scene.
Poor Advice is an album that isn’t afraid to tackle difficult subjects. Across its tracklist, Basht. explore themes including the genocide in Palestine, the influence of the Catholic Church, fractured relationships and growing distrust in modern media. Yet despite its often dark subject matter, the record is underpinned by a quiet sense of patience and reflection, transforming emotionally heavy themes into moments of powerful catharsis.
With a debut album already making a significant impact and an ambitious international tour on the horizon, 2027 looks set to be another landmark year for Basht.
Artist pre-sale tickets go on sale from 10am on Wednesday 11 November, followed by Live Nation and Gigs In Scotland pre-sales from 10am on Thursday 12 November. General sale begins at 10am on Friday 13 November.
