Following their first UK gigs back in May this year, Dead Pioneers, the indigenous punk rock band from Denver, Colorado, are set to return in February and March 2026 for their first headline tour. Tickets go on sale at 9 am this Friday, September 19th.
The tour is in support of their critically acclaimed second album, PO$T AMERICAN, which was released earlier this year through Hassle Records. Support for all UK shows comes from Yakkie, featuring Janey Starling, formerly of Dream Nails.
Frontman Gregg Deal says of the return:
“We’re excited to be heading back to the UK. Our time there last spring was eye-opening and an overwhelmingly fantastic experience. As we continue to grow, we’re deeply moved by those of you who grow with us—giving us the chance to share our music, our message, and space together. In these tumultuous and uncertain times, we’re especially grateful to connect with like-minded folks in the joy of music. It’s all love, friends, and we’re moved by it. See you in the spring!”
Dead Pioneers emerged as a dynamic extension of vocalist Gregg Deal’s performance art, blending spoken word, hypnotic post-rock, and punk roots. The band’s sound acts as a powerful platform for addressing the complexities of the Indigenous experience, using the raw energy of punk to challenge prevailing narratives of colonization and systemic marginalization.
The UK dates are as follows:
February 2026
- 26th – Bristol, The Croft
- 27th – Manchester, Rebellion
- 28th – Leeds, Key Club
March 2026
