Naxatras Announce Spring European Tour
This is a band I consider myself fortunate to have seen. As Greek heavy progressives Naxatras have continued to broaden their sound and introduce new depths to an approach that still, somehow, retains the character of its jammy origins while incorporating dub, krautrock, psychedelia and other aspects, their live shows are worldsetting. All the sprawl, immersion and trance comes to life onstage and instead of pushing the audience away with self-indulgence, they welcome with warmth of tone and presence. They are a thing to behold if you have the opportunity.
They were out this Fall supporting their new album, V (review here), which was released earlier this year, and covered stops on the eastern side of Europe that they’ll now complement with dates in Germany, France, Austria, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, culminating in two days in Italy for Heavy Psych Sounds Fest 2026 in Bologna and Turin. I’d be surprised if those are the only festival dates Naxatras do in the New Year, so keep an eye out accordingly and I’ll do my best to do the same.
What’s currently confirmed follows here, as put together by Swamp Booking:
