Blackbraid Announces 2025 North American Headlining Tour
Indigenous black metal project Blackbraid will be embarking on a North American headliner later this year with support from Lamp of Murmuur and Dödsrit, with Gudsforladt replacing LoM as support for two Canadian dates. The trek will kick off on September 19 in San Diego, CA and will make its way around the US and Canada until the final stop on October 11 in Los Angeles, CA. The full itinerary can be found below.
Blackbraid will be touring in support of his upcoming third full-length, Blackbraid III, which will be released on August 8, 2025 independently. More details on Blackbraid III will be revealed soon, while album details can be found below.
In addition, Blackbraid has partnered with Fire in the Mountains Festival to curate a special pre-release event where festival attendees will get to hear Blackbraid III ahead of its August 8 release date! During the event, there will also be a special live Q&A that will take place during the listening session with Metal Injection’s Frank Godla.
Fire in the Mountains will take place in Montana from July 25-27, 2025 at the Red Eagle Campground on the Blackfeet Nation Reserve. Blackbraid joins an esteemed lineup of artists including Wardruna, Old Man’s Child, Chelsea Wolfe, Converge, Blood Incantation, and more! Tickets are available here while the full lineup and all pertinent festival information can be found here.
