The Dead South

The Dead South, an acclaimed Canadian ensemble from Saskatchewan, have carved a distinctive niche in the realms of Americana and bluegrass. Blending raw acoustic textures with driving rhythms and haunting harmonies, their sound is both rooted in tradition and bracingly contemporary. Known as a formidable force in live music, The Dead South are lauded for energetic performances that breathe new life into the folk-bluegrass genre.

Recent concert highlights saw The Dead South headlining major venues, including a dynamic set at Cambridge’s Corn Exchange and a sold-out show at London’s O2 Academy Brixton in 2026. The group’s prolific output is equally impressive, with releases such as "Chains & Stakes" (2024) and the much-anticipated single "Joey" slated for April 2025, demonstrating their ongoing commitment to their craft. They have also delivered a series of notable recordings, including fan favourites like "Banjo Odyssey" and "Black Lung," each showcasing the band's instrumental prowess and compelling storytelling.

With concerts scheduled at iconic venues including Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom, Manchester's Aviva Studios, and Dublin’s Vicar St in March 2027, The Dead South continue to captivate audiences throughout the UK and Ireland.
