Aldous Harding

Aldous Harding returns to the UK stage at Brighton Dome, Brighton, on 25 May 2026. The New Zealand singer and songwriter has shaped a body of work that moves from stripped-back folk towards an intimate, slightly experimental pop. Known for elliptical lyrics and a voice that changes register with intent, she plays with silence and space, shifting between guitar and piano and letting small details carry the drama.

On this date, she digs into songs from across her catalogue — the self-titled debut, Party (recorded with John Parish), Designer and Warm Chris — while opening a window onto new material from her forthcoming fifth album. Live, Harding leans into minimalist arrangements and subtle dynamics, moving from hushed ballads to taut, melodic turns without losing the thread of her storytelling. After pausing touring since 2023, this is a focused return built around her singular stage presence and a set that balances familiar highlights with what’s next. Plus support.
