I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME (iDKHOW), the musical project of Salt Lake City-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Dallon Weekes, is announcing a first UK tour in three years.
The news follows the announcement of a huge US tour which has already had an overwhelming response, with a remarkable 17 shows already sold out.
Pre-sales begin on Wednesday 31st January at 10:00 am local time with the general on-sale on Friday 2nd February at 10:00 am local time. Tickets will go on sale at www.idkhow.com.
The new run of dates includes shows in new cities for iDKHOW, as well as the band’s biggest ever UK headline show at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire. Previously iDKHOW have sold out shows across the UK, and also played the mainstages at Reading & Leeds festivals.
The tour will take place off the back of the release of forthcoming album GLOOM DIVISION, which arrives on 23rd February via Concord Records. So far the project has teased three singles – ‘What Love?’, ‘GLOOMTOWN BRATS’, and ‘INFATUATION’ – with Weekes saying of the album: “Writing has always been an outlet to exorcize your demons or difficult emotions, but with GLOOM DIVISION I made a conscious effort to stop censoring myself when it comes to the subject material, or what I wanted to say.”
On his return to the UK for more shows, he says: “It’s been far too long since I’ve had the pleasure of performing in the UK and the rest of Europe. The fans there are incredible, and I can’t wait to see them all again. It’s going to be wonderful!”

Produced by Dave Fridmann (Tame Impala, MGMT, Weezer), GLOOM DIVISION showcases a boundary-pushing fusion of R&B, post-punk and art-pop, exploring themes ranging from love and obsession to satanic panic and neurodivergence. Recorded at Fridmann’s Tarbox Road Studios and Weekes’ own basement studio, GLOOM DIVISION is a testament to the power of collaboration and fearless artistic expression.
iDKHOW has garnered nearly one billion streams worldwide to date, with two million monthly listeners on Spotify. The new album follows iDKHOW’s critically acclaimed debut, Razzmatazz, which included the #1 Alternative radio hit ‘Leave Me Alone,’ and the previous EP 1981 Extended Play that included RIAA certified GOLD-certified single ‘Choke.’ They have performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Ellen and CBS This Morning: Saturday, and shared stages with Post Malone, The Killers and more.
