After a high-octane start to the year, DeWolff is charging head first into the summer festival circuit before they head out on an intensive headline tour from December through to May, calling through The Netherlands, Sweden, Belgium, France, Spain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and the UK in 2025.
Fast becoming a formidable live favourite in the UK following their October 2023 tour with Jared James Nichols and their first-ever headline tour in the UK in March this year. Said to own the club stages they prowl on a nightly basis in the same way they transform festival stages into their own congregation through a charismatic, intense and communal live spectacle.
Talking about coming back to the UK to play some shows, the band said, “We’re so happy to be playing in the UK again soon! Touring is what really brings our music to life: being on stage, in front of like-minded people, bouncing off each other musically, improvising and letting that inspiration flow in real-time is what we live for! And we can’t wait to share it with you, dear UK people!” They continued, “Our first tour in the UK last year was long overdue but it was worth the wait: we had such an amazing time together and we were amazed by the enthusiasm and sheer positive energy with which we were met!”
The UK tour will begin on 12th April in Glasgow (Stereo) and then pass through Manchester (Deaf Institute), Nottingham (Rescue Rooms), Bristol (The Fleece), Oxford (O2 Academy), and London (The Garage) on 18th April.
Over the last 18 months, they have careered across Europe on headline tours and shows with Toto and The Black Crowes, playing songs from their most recent album, 2023’s Love, Death & In Between, released on Mascot Records. This album became their first-ever #1 record in their native Netherlands, and birthed the singles ‘Heart Stopping Kinda Show’, ‘Night Train’, and the sprawling ‘Rosita’.
In that time, they have celebrated a nomination for an Edison Award (The Dutch Grammy’s) for their album Double Cream with The Dawn Brothers, along with a ton of heavy-duty touring, including performances at Paaspop, Roadburn, Pinkpop, North Sea Jazz Festival, Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea III Mediterranean cruise and released the live album Live & Outta Sight 3. On top of that, they also received the Gouden Notekraker this year, the prize that – After nomination and election by colleagues- Is awarded to the artist/band with the most special and influential live performances of the past season and you watch the performance here at RAMzine.
Last year, they travelled to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to record songs for their new album, so expect some tasty new delights.
