Today, Wednesday 3rd December – the incredible, hugely influential and much loved Japanese band toe can finally announce a run of UK headline dates for 2026. Blending together an intricate and stunning mix of post rock, jazz, electronica, math rock, R&B and much more, these shows are long, long in the making.

toe have only been to the UK twice in their entire career, in 2013 (a sold out solitary London show at XOYO) and in 2016 (for an ArcTanGent Festival exclusive) – but they’ve been highly influential on the world of math rock both here and in Japan, where they’ve just completed their 25th tour across the country, culminating in an in-the-round show at a Sumo arena in Tokyo.

On top of that – the band also recently celebrated the 25th Anniversary with a huge in-the-round (sumo) arena show in Tokyo, and these shows – billed as the “Loneliness Will Shine” tour (includes Euro dates also) are part of their 25th anniversary touring.

To get a better understanding of this very special band, please do watch this captivating live performance from The First Take, of the track ‘Goodbye’ feat. Asako Toki + Seigen Tokuzawa.
