Temples: The Bliss Tour

Temples bring The Bliss Tour to The Pearl in Vancouver, BC on Sunday, September 27, 2026. Formed in 2012 in Kettering, the British quartet — James Bagshaw, Tom Walmsley, Adam Smith and Sam Toms — has shaped a psych-pop sound where melodic hooks meet layered harmonies, reverb-soaked guitars and vivid keyboard textures. On stage, they weave early highlights from Sun Structures and Volcano with the darker pulse of Hot Motion and the colorful contours of Exotico, shifting from jangly sparkle to motorik drive without losing the thread of the song.

Album after album, Temples have widened their palette, folding in baroque pop details and denser arrangements while keeping a clear, direct writing style. The Bliss Tour distills that evolution live: bright choruses rubbing shoulders with hypnotic passages, grooves that lift and then settle into deeper tones. Expect a set that roams across their catalogue, with special guests opening before the band steps in to map out their blend of immediacy and atmosphere.
