Asher White announces first UK and Ireland tour for autumn 2026

The announcement caps a nine-month period that has seen the musician (and former Best Fit writer) expand her audience considerably following last September’s 8 Tips For Full Catastrophe Living, her debut for the Joyful Noise label (home to Wendy Eisenberg, Deerhoof and Lou Barlow). The album presents itself as a self-help guide, with White blending doom metal, bossa nova, power pop and industrial techno into layered collages. The lyrics channel disillusioned women navigating gentrification, emotional collapse and survival in a slow-burning apocalypse.

In February, White released a full-length cover of Jessica Pratt’s self-titled debut LP inspired by late-night walks in Providence, where she found herself singing “phantom harmonies” to Pratt’s sparse originals. More recently, she has shared "Nightingale Version (Sailor’s Moon)", her first new music of 2026.
