Fresh off the back of a successful run closing out 2025 alongside Nothing More, Swedish electro-metal outfit Solence have announced they are heading back out on the road. The band have confirmed a massive headline tour across Europe and the UK for Spring 2026, and they are bringing some solid support with them in the form of Dream State and Written By Wolves.
The tour is in support of their latest album, Angels Calling, which is out now via Better Noise Music. If you caught them on the last run, you’ll know the energy they bring to the stage. For those who missed it, this upcoming trek spans 23 dates, kicking off in Helsinki before winding its way over to our shores in late April.
Frontman Markus Videsäter and the lads—David Strääf (guitar), Johan Swärd (keys), and David Vikingsson (drums)—are clearly buzzing to get back in the van. Speaking about the upcoming shows, the band said:
“We’ve been on the road with Nothing More over the last few weeks and the response has been amazing, so it felt natural that we get out there again and get the people what they want… more of The Solence Experience! So get your tickets today, don’t miss out!!”
For the uninitiated, Solence have built a bit of a monster since forming in 2012. They started out putting a heavy spin on pop hits from the likes of Britney Spears and Queen, but have since evolved into a songwriting powerhouse in their own right. They’ve racked up nearly 400 million streams and gathered a serious following with a sound that mashes up electronic elements, metal riffs, and pop hooks. It’s lively stuff, described as the “aural equivalent of riding on the steepest and most winding rollercoaster ever”.
Angels Calling sees the band sporting a new look and a refined sound, mixing the best of their past with a fresh direction. If you want to catch the new material live, tickets go on general sale on Tuesday, December 9th at 10:00 AM CET (which is 9:00 AM for us in the UK). There’s a pre-sale kicking off the day before on Monday, December 8th.

- Tue 28th Apr – Fleece, Bristol
- Thu 30th Apr – Cathouse, Glasgow
