Dave - The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour

Dave touches down in Toronto on April 24, 2026 at Coca-Cola Coliseum with The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour. Born in London to Nigerian parents and rooted in Streatham, the MC also known as Santan Dave came up on early freestyles and the track Wanna Know before shaping a sound that threads grime, UK rap and trap inflections. On stage he often brings the piano to the center, pacing detailed storytelling with spare melodies and measured flows. His writing circles mental health, family ties, social pressures and the Black British experience, often unfolding in long, scene-like tracks.

Since the EPs Six Paths and Game Over, Dave has pushed that line through Psychodrama, a debut album that set his narrative frame, then We’re All Alone in This Together, opening the palette to more melodic turns and cross-Atlantic collaborations. Along the way he has traded verses with AJ Tracey, Fredo and Central Cee, with whom he released the 2023 project Split Decision. The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour draws from across this catalog, balancing reflective pieces with club-leaning cuts and piano-led moments, held together by his calm delivery and sharp detail.
