About this event
From Friday, 11 December 2026 until Saturday, 12 December 2026, Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats AUS / NZ Tour is on at San Fran, Wellington.
UK psychedelic heavyweights Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats return to Australia and New Zealand this December, bringing their dark, hypnotic live show to stages across the country.
The brainchild of Kevin Starrs, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats have spent over a decade carving out a singular space within the global heavy music landscape. Since emerging in 2009 from the depths of the British underground, the band have built a reputation for their unmistakable fusion of warped psychedelic pop, downer blues and doom-metal intensity.

Too bold and idiosyncratic to be easily defined, Uncle Acid’s sound is steeped in haunting melodies, layered vocal harmonies and eerie, cinematic arrangements, offset by crushing riffs and a persistent sense of unease. It’s a sonic world that feels both deeply nostalgic and completely otherworldly, cementing Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats as one of the most compelling live acts in contemporary rock.
With their last visit to our shores in 2020, Australian audiences can expect a set that traverses the band’s cult catalogue, delivered with the immersive intensity that has made them a must-see worldwide.
