DACARA sold out their first headline show at Manchester's Deaf Institute in November '24, and played to over two thousand people at Download Festival 2025, after being picked for the Doghouse Takeover. Their latest single 'RØT' was released in April 2025 and is their most dynamic and powerful track yet, showcasing their full range from ethereal vocals, to DOOM-inspired synths and heavy breakdowns with passionate female screams. RØT received an overwhelmingly positive response, with BBC Radio 1 airplay, and made Primordial Radio's A List.
Other notable shows include crushing their way through to the final of Manchester's Metal 2 The Masses competition in 2024, where they won over both judges and attendees with some of the highest recorded scores of the competition. They've also supported Download Festival alumni such as BEX and Skarlett Riot, and supported notable Japanese metal band Esprit D'Air at Manchester Academy. DACARA return for a triumphant headline gig at Manchester's Rebellion on November 28th which is on track to be another sellout show.
