Canadian rock-and-roll stalwarts The Sheepdogs are bringing their signature blend of guitar-heavy optimism back across the Atlantic. Following the announcement of their upcoming studio album, Keep Out Of The Storm (arriving February 27, 2026), the multi-platinum, four-time JUNO Award winners have confirmed an extensive UK and European run kicking off this November.
A Glam-Kissed New Sound
To whet the appetite of fans, the band has released their latest single, "I Do." Described by frontman Ewan Currie as "one big YES," the track captures a rare romantic euphoria, blending the swagger of T. Rex with the sophisticated, stacked harmonies of Queen. It’s a celebratory anthem that signals a band feeling newly energized and unfiltered.
The track is the second offering from Keep Out Of The Storm, the first full-length release on their own newly minted label, Right On Records. Recorded "live-off-the-floor" to capture their raw, touring energy, the album features guest contributions from members of July Talk and Born Ruffians, while fully showcasing the vibrant guitar work of Ricky Paquette.
UK & European Tour Dates
After a monumental 2025 that saw them supporting Bryan Adams on a sold-out arena tour, The Sheepdogs are ready to headline their own "rock-and-roll refuge." The UK leg begins in the north and travels through the heart of the country:
Nov 11: Glasgow
Nov 12: Manchester
Nov 14: Birmingham
Nov 15: London
Nov 16: Bristol
Affirmation Through Rock and Roll
Despite undergoing a period of transition, Keep Out Of The Storm sounds like an affirmation of everything the band does best: bigger riffs, looser jams, and warm, inviting vocals. "We had a ball going cross-country with Bryan," says Currie. "Now it’s time to run it back with our own headlining tour."
For a band that has spent two decades mastering the art of the riff, these upcoming UK dates promise to be a masterclass in classic rock revivalism. Tickets for the November run are on sale now below.
