DMA's

DMA’s bring their guitar-led energy to The Great Hall, Cardiff on 2 February 2027. Formed in Sydney in 2012, the trio of vocalist Tommy O’Dell with guitarists Matt Mason and Johnny Took has built a straight-ahead, melodic strain of indie rock that nods to britpop without pastiche. Early cuts like Delete set the template, then the band broadened the palette across Hills End and For Now before folding in more rhythmic, electronic-tinged textures on The Glow. Their latest album, How Many Dreams?, keeps that balance of uplift and restraint, giving the live show room to shift gears.

On stage, DMA’s stack bright, chiming guitars and sturdy grooves under choruses made for a crowd, then dial it back for quieter, close-up moments. UK audiences know them from relentless touring and support slots with Liam Gallagher, Richard Ashcroft, Kasabian and The Kooks, and their take on Believe has become a sing-along staple. In Cardiff, the set should sweep through the four records, mixing fan favourites with a few detours for the diehards, all anchored by that clear, unforced songwriting.
