Howling Giant Confirms 2026 U.S. Tour with Insomniac
Nashville, Tennessee’s Howling Giant announce their first headlining tour of 2026, with support from heavy psych rockers Insomniac.
Nashville, Tennessee’s Howling Giant announce their first headlining tour in support of their acclaimed third full-length, Crucible & Ruin. On the North American road trip this coming spring from March 11 until April 4, 2026, the cosmic stoner metal outfit will be joined by heavy psych rockers Insomniac from Atlanta, Georgia.
Please find all currently confirmed live dates & album details of Crucible & Ruin below.
Drummer and vocalist Zach Wheeler writes:
“We’re stoked to bring ‘Crucible & Ruin’ to the West Coast around our appearance at the Mojave Experience. As usual we’ll have hot sauce, coffee, various trinkets, and of course our new record available on vinyl, CD, and cassette! We’re also bringing our friends Insomniac out on this run, so expect a heady night of psychedelic meditation and hot ’n spicy riffs. See y’all out there!”
About the upcoming spring tour, Insomniac drummer Amos Rifkin comments:
“After the early success of our debut record Om Moksha Ritam and tours supporting it this fall, we’re champing at the bit to hit the road again in the new year, and especially to be a part of the inaugural Mojave Experience festival in Joshua Tree. We’re humbled and honoured to support such a fantastic band like Howling Giant and can’t wait to travel cross-country making beautiful music together!”
