Bluesy rock & roll guitarist, Ross Harding, has revealed new UK tour dates starting late January 2026. He will be performing full electric sets with his band, “Ross Harding & The Dark Blues’.

Dates and venues include Ram Jam Records, Kingston Upon Thames 7th Feb, The Spinning Top, Stockport 12th Feb and The John Peel Arts Centre, Stowmarket on Saturday 28th Feb. He will also be performing a solo acoustic set, opening for established blues-rock band ‘Big Wolf Band’ at Colne Delta Blues and Americana Club in Brightlingsea, Essex on 20th March. The tour will continue, back with the rest of the Ross Harding & The Dark Blues band, with shows at The Fiery Bird in Woking on 21st March and then the newly opened venue Riff Factory in Stoke On Trent on 27th March. New dates for the rest of the year will be announced later, so keep an eye on Ross’s socials. Ross Harding And The Dark Blues are described as an electric blues rock/hard rock musical experience, where, with an excellent band, Ross Harding performs original songs with one or two renditions of cover songs that have been greatly influential in his music. An unapologetic rock & roll experience for audiences who love high energy music, with interludes of slow blues and emotive musical mastery. It's for fans of high energy rock & roll, blues rock, and artists like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Soundgarden, Joe Bonamassa, Glenn Hughes/Black Country Communion, Slash and Myles Kennedy. Ross has already hit the ground running on the UK live circuit opening for fellow blues-rock artist Dan Patlansky at Oran Mor in Glasgow, Scotland and The Cluny, Newcastle in April 2024. This was then followed by more solo acoustic performances supporting British Blues Rocking riffmeister Jack J Hutchinson at The Black Heart in Camden, London and rising American roots rock band Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast on their first headline UK Tour at The 1865 in Southampton. He also released the single ‘A Thousand Snakes’ which is a stripped-back acoustic version of the track. It has already received US radio airplay and coverage from a variety of music publications.
