Uada and Mortiis are teaming up in 2026 for a special 2026 North American co-headlining tour running from April 10 through May 16. The trek will feature exclusive anniversary sets commemorating Uada’s 2016 debut, Devoid of Light, in full. Mortiis will showcase material from his 2001 album, The Smell of Rain. Support comes from Jerome Reuter’s Rome and Wraith Knight. Tickets are available at this location.
Uada commented:
“It has been a profound honor to play a central role in assembling this distinctive and richly diverse touring package. The line-up carries deep personal history and influence for me, while also embodying some of the most cherished milestones of my own musical journey.
AAs someone who has always appreciated the artistry of thoughtfully mixed bills—an approach that feels increasingly rare in today’s landscape—this particular combination is especially meaningful and should deliver a strikingly unique, yet cohesive experience for those in attendance.
Above all, this tour is my gift to the fans: an opportunity to witness a moment that may never come again, to discover extraordinary talents they might not yet know, and to share an evening that I sincerely hope will live on as an unforgettable memory.”
Mortiis added:
“While creating and uncreating, sometimes composing, and occasionally violently invoking, the music and sounds that are set to be my new album, it is growing increasingly apparent to me, that I am occasionally calling upon some old ghosts of the past.
I can hear (sometimes clearly, other times faintly) some musical echoes from The ‘Smell Of Rain’ days, not to mention new sounds of the blurry, faint, but unmistakably strange, future, that is yet to unfold.
It seems natural to me, to now unearth several of the songs from ‘The Smell Of Rain’ (and other music, of similar dispirit!) as a first step into the bleak dystopian dreamscapes Mortiis appears to be heading into from here on out.
So here I am, clawing through a quarter century old recordings, preparing for 2026.”
