Dawes

Dawes brings their signature blend of soulful songwriting, rich harmonies, and timeless Americana-inflected rock to a string of unforgettable summer shows in 2026. Known for their deeply personal lyrics and masterful musicianship, the Los Angeles-based band has spent over a decade crafting music that resonates with both the head and the heart. From intimate club nights to sweeping outdoor amphitheaters, every Dawes performance is a testament to the enduring power of authentic, story-driven rock music. The summer run kicks off with a headline set at the legendary Belly Up Tavern on June 26, followed by a deeply meaningful 'Dawes & Friends: A Gerry G Tribute' show at the scenic Libbey Bowl on June 27 — a celebration of community and musical legacy. The band then joins forces with Kaleo for a series of co-headline dates, including stops at Red Butte Garden in Salt Lake City, GrindersKC, and The Salt Shed Outdoors in Chicago, pairing two of alternative rock's most compelling live acts for what promises to be electrifying double-bill evenings under the open sky. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering Dawes for the first time, these shows offer something rare in modern music — genuine emotion, virtuosic playing, and a band that plays like every night is their last. Grab your tickets and prepare for an evening of music that will stay with you long after the last chord fades.
