KITTIE UK SUMMER 2026
Split Chain join Kittie’s August 2026 UK heavy and alternative metal shows at Club Academy and O2 Academy Islington.
Split Chain is a standout presence in the UK alternative metal scene, commanding attention since their formation in 2023. With a disciplined approach to heavy riffs and emotive intensity, this group has quickly established a distinct sonic identity, blending the abrasion of alternative metal with a contemporary edge. Their studio work is both prolific and compelling, boasting a catalogue that includes singles such as “Descend,” “Fade,” and “Haven,” as well as the eagerly anticipated debut album motionblur, slated for release in July 2025.
Their reputation for dynamic live music experiences continues to grow, with major concert appearances set for 2026. Notably, Split Chain are scheduled as support for Kittie at the O2 Academy Islington in London and Club Academy in Manchester in August 2026, bringing their formidable energy to wider audiences. September 2026 will see them headlining their own gigs, with shows lined up at The Joiners in Southampton and Underworld in London, further cementing their place at the forefront of the UK live metal circuit.
As momentum builds and tour dates are confirmed, Split Chain represents the next wave of alternative metal innovation. To stay updated on the band’s upcoming shows, merchandise, and new releases, be sure to follow Split Chain and keep an eye on their latest gig announcements.
