After touring heavily across North America in 2023, in support of their Dumesday Book album, Baltimore duo, Darsombra, have announced a plethora of new tour dates. This includes some special events and festivals, such as Roadburn, Exile On Mainstream 25, Desertfest, film and music gathering Sleeping Giant Fest. Keep reading below for more information.
Winter and early Spring months will see sporadic one-off and regional dates along the East Coast. In April, Darsombra will make their way across the Atlantic, returning to Roadburn Festival to share the stage with The Jesus And Mary Chain, Chelsea Wolfe, Khanate, Blood Incantation, and dozens more. Following Roadburn, the band will tour through Europe with shows in Poland, Belgium, and Germany, to play the Exile On Mainstream 25 Festival dates in both Berlin and Leipzig – the 25th anniversary of the diverse label, for which Darsombra is an alumni act – with Ostinato, A Whisper In The Noise, Caspar Brötzmann Massaker, Conny Ochs, and many others also on the four-day/two-city bill. And in the wake of EOM25, Darsombra will join up with their allies Stinking Lizaveta for six shows across the UK, including Desertfest London with Godflesh, Suicidal Tendencies, Ufomammut, Bongripper, Acid King, Monolord, and many more.
Darsombra is still seeking help booking shows throughout Europe between the Roadburn and EOM25 festivals and more UK dates with Stinking Lizaveta around the existing gigs, so anybody who wants to host this hallucinogenic duo, please contact the band directly through their social points linked here.

More from Darsombra:
Originally conceived as a surreal take on a pop album to contrast with their ominously prescient monolithic 2019 release, Transmission, Dumesday Book is a ten-song survey of sentiment and human experience in the pandemic, from initial lockdown to vaccinated re-emergence and beyond – which, in the Darsombra microcosm, means from cancelled tours to returning to the road. Dumesday Book delivers seventy-five minutes of sonic revelry, recorded and mixed by Darsombra’s Brian Daniloski at the band’s Whale Manor, and mastered by Jon Smulyan. Darsombra’s Ann Everton handled the cover art, photography, and videography.
Dumesday Book is available on CD, 2xLP, and digitally on Darsombra’s own Pnictogen Records. Physical formats include a twelve-page booklet, a sticker, and a download code with access to bonus material. Place orders at the band’s webshop here and Bandcamp here.
