Kakihara

Kakihara, hailing from Edinburgh, have been a formidable presence in the hardcore scene since 2018, carving out a name with their intense live performances and uncompromising sound. Their roots in the UK’s dynamic underground music community have seen them share the stage with an array of acts, consistently compelling audiences with a raw and unfiltered approach that is distinctly their own.

In February 2026, Kakihara brought their relentless energy to Legends on Cowgate, Edinburgh, as part of the RamFest lineup. That evening, they supported DOG TIRED—an established force in heavy music—alongside fellow acts Disposable, hype cycle., and Archangel. The set further solidified Kakihara’s reputation for electrifying gigs that leave an indelible impression on the Scottish live music circuit.

March 2026 will see Kakihara headlining at the Banshee Labyrinth in Edinburgh, leading a powerful bill that includes HAMMER, BREATHE RUST, Knife Off, and HIDEY HIDEY. For fans of hardcore concerts and those seeking out standout tour dates, it’s an ideal opportunity to experience the band’s fervour up close.
