What's On

About

Forging a career over four decades in countless genres, Devin Townsend has reached cult status in the progressive-metal world for his polymathic talent and continual pushing of the envelope.

In 2025, after a career including iconic performances at Royal Albert Hall and multiple world tours, Townsend announced an indefinite hiatus from touring. Having then delivered the live debut in Groningen of The Moth, his most ambitious work to date, it was only natural to need a break.

Townsend returned home to complete the studio album of The Moth (out 29th May on InsideOutMusic) and to rebuild himself in preparation for the next stage.

According to Townsend: ‘The Moth feels like the culmination of all my musical experiences and my journey in life so far. And as ‘The Moth’ spreads its wings, I’m also aware of how much I’ve changed, and consequently how much remains to be expressed.’

This welcomed change of heart should likely appeal to a legion of loyal fans worldwide, who now have the opportunity to watch Devin Townsend perform a range of tracks from his 31-strong studio album discography across a range of different artist projects including Punky Brüster, Casualties of Cool, Devin Townsend Project and the genre-defining Strapping Young Lad.

The Metamorphosis solo tour offers a rare unfiltered opportunity to see Devin Townsend back on stage, performing solo at 24 shows across 11 different countries in the UK and Europe. In typical Devin Townsend fashion, expect the unexpected with a varied set list that will doubtless change night by night, and of course a few (bizarre) surprises along the way.
