The Pretty Reckless - Dear God Tour

The Pretty Reckless brings the Dear God Tour to History Ottawa in Ottawa on September 13, 2026. Formed in New York around singer and guitarist Taylor Momsen, the band builds a raw, melodic rock that leans on hard rock punch, post-grunge tension and a classic rock backbone. On stage, Momsen’s grainy vocals cut through heavy riffs and steady grooves, with guitarist Ben Phillips, bassist Mark Damon and drummer Jamie Perkins forming a tight, durable core.

Since Light Me Up in 2010, their songs have balanced direct hooks with darker shades, flirting with themes of disillusion, faith, desire and resilience. Going to Hell (2014) and Who You Selling For (2016) pulled the sound toward a bluesier, vintage edge without losing that radio-shaped bite, while Death by Rock and Roll (2021) pushed into more introspective territory, marked by loss and recovery. Live, expect a set that threads early fan favorites with newer tracks, moving from brooding slow-burners to riff-led bursts built for a crowd singalong, delivered with the band’s usual no-frills, guitar-first energy.
