AIR DRAWN DAGGER announce biggest show to date
Following their sold-out show at The Leadmill earlier this year, featuring a choir of ghosts, confetti, and a human sacrifice, electro-emo angst-pop trio AIR DRAWN DAGGER have announced their biggest show to date at Corporation, in their hometown of Sheffield, on Saturday 5th April, 2025.
“We want to immerse people in the realm we are building. We want people to remember where they were on Saturday 5th of April 2025 and what they experienced at Corporation, Sheffield. The Church of Dagger will rejoice like never before,” says guitarist Lewis.
The band’s 2023 EP ‘Songs to Fight the Gods To’, produced by Neil Kennedy (Creeper, Boston Manor), took their sound to a new level. Combining haunting pianos, hip-hop beats, and synths with the spirit of early- 2000s emo, the five tracks tackle themes of rebellion, destiny, and dismantling systems of power. It’s a powerful statement of who they are: a genre-bending force with a message of defiance and individuality. The band’s live shows are a therapeutic space for outsiders to embrace their darker sides in a raucous, inclusive celebration.
Air Drawn Dagger’s momentum is undeniable. They’ve sold out major headline shows, including the legendary Leadmill, and completed sold-out UK dates with Millie Manders. Recent dates with Lake Malice, Dream State, and AVIVIA saw back-to-back sellouts along with curating their own stage at the Tramlines Festival Fringe. With over 250,000 views on ‘You Should Have Known Better’, featuring on the Kerrang! chart and multiple tracks premiering on BBC Introducing, the band’s cult-like following continues to grow.
The Corporation show announcement follows the news of the band’s recent signing to Long Branch Records. With brand new music also expected in Spring, 2025 is set to become ‘The Year of the Dagger’.
