WEDNESDAY // YOHKAI STAGE // 14:50-15:20

Cinematic instrumental post-rock/post-metal quintet Din Of Celestial Birds have been capturing the hearts of passionate music lovers up and down the UK with their emotional and enrapturing live shows, leading to them playing one of the most talked about debut sets at ArcTanGent Festival 2023. The Leeds based band have honed a textured and dynamic wall of sound approach, delivering pummeling riffs, swirling melodic passages and shimmering atmospheric textures.

Their 2023 debut full length album The Night Is For Dreamers was met with high critical praise, produced by Joe Clayton (Pijn, Curse These Metal Hands, Leeched) and released in August on Vinyl, CD and Digital formats via A Cheery Wave (UK), Dunk! Records (EU), and A Thousand Arms (US). Since last year’s ATG appearance, Din Of Celestial Birds have gone on to play Damnation: A Night Of Salvation, StrangeForms, Dunk! and Portals Festivals, as well as embarking on UK tours with Hundred Year Old Man (also an unmissable band at ATG) and Ranges.

If you are hardcore enough to be attending the Wednesday opening day at ATG this year, then be sure not to miss the Birds deliver a powerful and stirring afternoon set on the Yohkai Stage.

“The Leeds post-rock unit sound utterly majestic. Expect this band to take flight and roost within the main stage of ArcTanGent next year.”
