DMA's

DMA’s bring their Sydney-bred indie rock to Manchester Academy on 6 February 2027. Formed by singer Tommy O’Dell with guitarists Matt Mason and Johnny Took, the trio have shaped a catalogue built on crisp guitars and melodic choruses, somewhere between alternative rock and a clear Britpop thread. On stage, that base opens into wider, sometimes dance-leaning textures introduced on The Glow, without moving away from the direct, guitar-led writing of Hills End and For Now.

Expect a set that travels across their four albums, from early single Delete to recent tracks from How Many Dreams?, with room for the songs that have grown on tour. Regulars on UK stages, DMA’s keep arrangements focused, vocals upfront and dynamics sharp, letting the material shift from hushed verses to open, sing-along refrains. Manchester gets a straight-ahead show centred on songs and momentum, carried by a trio who know how to keep the spotlight on choruses and the pull of clean, ringing guitars.
