THE HU ANNOUNCE NEW UK SHOWS FOR THIS AUTUMN WITH SPECIAL GUESTS SKÁLD

Hunnu Rock pioneers The HU have announced a run of dates across the UK for this October, playing alongside special guests SKÁLD. 

For the first time in over three years, Mongolian metal outfit The HU are set to return to the UK for the Warrior Chant tour.. This autumn, the band will play across the UK, including a night at the Prospect Building in Bristol on 1st October. The tour also includes shows at O2 City Hall in Newcastle and O2 Apollo in Manchester. The full list of dates can be found below.

The band will be joined on the road by special guests SKÁLD. Founded in 2018, the French band lean heavily on Norse mythology, channeling the Viking spirit into their sound through language and instrumentation indebted to centuries gone by.

This trio of dates marks The HU’s first live performances in the UK since they played at the iconic Glastonbury Festival in the summer of 2023, as part of the ‘Rumble of Thunder’ tour. The band have since released a live album immortalising their Glastonbury set, which was released in 2024. Now, they’re gearing up to release their third record this year.

About The HU

The HU are a fantastically unique force of nature. A musical sensation formed in 2016 in the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar, the quartet are the pioneers of the genre Hunnu Rock, with almost 900 million global streams to their name – and counting. 2019’s debut album ‘The Gereg’ put them on the map: not just in their home country, where they were the first group ever to be awarded the prestigious Chinggis Khaan Order, but even a galaxy far, far away, contributing an original song to the ‘Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order’ soundtrack.

Since then, the band have contributed to ‘The Metallica Blacklist’ record, performing a distinct, formidable cover of ‘Through The Never’ at the legendary band’s personal request and played iconic stages such as Glastonbury and alongside Iron Maiden in North American arenas. Now, The HU are gearing up for the release of their highly-anticipated third album in 2026. 

In the more immediate future, though, The HU have plotted a busy summer in Europe on their ‘Incarnation’ tour, with slots at festivals such as France’s Hellfest, Germany’s Graspop Metal Meeting and Denmark’s Roskilde. Beyond that, they hope to return to the States, and “tour around the world” to celebrate a whole new era of the band.
