For the first time since 2016, four members of Super Furry Animals, reconstituted as the sonically adventurous, collective Das Koolies will take to the motorways of England, Scotland and Wales on a tour of five major cities. Kicking things off in their own front room by returning to Clwb Ifor Bach in Cardiff on Wed 24 January 2024, the band’s first tour is announced at the same time as they reveal a collaboration with legendary DJ and producer, Krust.
The first steps onto the stage as the feted, much-rumoured, yet never-seen-in-the-flesh Das Koolies happened in October as the band celebrated the release of their debut album DK.01 with a short run of Rough Trade instore appearances.
Witnesses to all performances reported high times and big beats, with the spirit of the band’s origins as early-90’s illegal-rave-hopping hoodlums raised from the past.
Bringing the Das Koolies hybrid of human and machine music to initially intimate venues before plans are unfurled for the rest of the year that follows, all confirmed 2024 Das Koolies DK.01 tour dates are as follows:
Wed 24 Jan – Cardiff, Clwb Ifor Bach
Thu 25 Jan – Manchester, YES Basement
Fri 26 Jan – London, Moth Club
Sun 28 Jan – Glasgow, King Tuts
Sat 23 Mar – Bristol, Ritual Union
All tickets go on sale at 9am on Wed 22 November with all ticket links found at www.daskoolies.co.uk
