The upcoming tour dates will follow on from the band’s biggest UK headline show to date at the OVO Arena Wembley this April, as well as their stint appearing as special guests to The Courteeners in front of 50,000 fans at Heaton Park.

The shows are also set to celebrate the release of their latest album ‘How Many Dreams?’, which arrived earlier this year.

Their fourth full-length album, the LP followed on from 2020’s ‘The Glow’, and saw the members find a balance between electronic dance elements, alongside guitar rock and punk. It also received a three-star review from NME, with Thomas Smith writing: “If there ever was a moment for DMA’s to really commit to a sound, and to do so fearlessly, it would be on album four – frustratingly, it feels like they’ve held back at points.”

“This isn’t entirely a wasted opportunity, though. ‘How Many Dreams?’ is ambitious and catchy enough to satiate old fans and realign the narrative for those who may have written DMA’s off,” It continued. “But it’s hard to not leave feeling that this was their moment, and they’ve only grabbed it with one hand.”
