The Darkness have announced their return, with their eighth studio album 'Dreams On Toast' being released in March 2025.

The Dreams On Toast UK headline tour will see them play 17 shows across the country, including York Barbican on March 17, 2025.

They will be supported by the Northern Irish indie-rock group Ash, who first supported The Darkness on their ‘Permission To Land Tour’ more than 20 years ago.

Lead singer of Ash, Tim Wheeler, said: "In 2004 we toured the UK’s arenas with The Darkness as ‘Permission to Land’ catapulted them into the big league.

"Next March, 21 years later, we will reunite to tear across Britain before an epic crescendo at Wembley Arena."

Fans who pre-order Dreams On Toast from the band’s official store at https://the-darkness.tmstor.es/ will receive access to a pre-sale for the March UK tour.
