the cabs UK Tour 2026 – The Exchange, Bristol – 17 May 2026

Japanese math-rock trio the cabs make their long-awaited UK debut in May 2026, their first ever international tour.

Formed in Saitama in 2006, the cabs earned cult status in Japan’s underground alternative scene with releases combining complex rhythmic structures, technical guitar work and intense melodic energy. Following a 12-year hiatus, the band reunited in 2025 to a rapturous response, with their domestic comeback tour selling out entirely, including a final show at Tokyo’s 3,000-capacity Toyosu PIT.

Now fully active again, the cabs head to the UK for the first time, with headline dates in London, Manchester, Exeter, and Bristol, coinciding with an appearance at The Great Escape 2026 in Brighton.
