Dead Pony are an electrifying rock band from Glasgow, Scotland, known for their

high-energy sound and genre-blending style. Fronted by the powerhouse vocals of Anna

Shields, alongside Blair Crichton (guitar), Liam Adams (bass), and Euan Lyons (drums),

they fuse elements of alt-rock, punk, and nu-metal into a sound that is both raw and

infectious.

Bursting onto the scene in 2020, Dead Pony quickly gained attention for their ferocious

riffs, punchy rhythms, and anthemic choruses. Singles like “Sharp Tongues” and “23,

Never Me” cemented their place as one of the most exciting new bands in UK rock. Their

debut EP, War Boys (2022), showcased their ability to blend driving guitar hooks with

gritty, attitude-packed vocals, drawing comparisons to Paramore, The Prodigy, and

N.E.R.D.

In 2024, Dead Pony took things to the next level with the release of their debut album

Ignore This — a hard-hitting collection packed with energy, attitude, and undeniable

hooks. The album’s success fuelled their completely sold-out Ignore This headline tour,

including their biggest Scottish headline show to date at the 1,000-capacity Queen

Margaret Union in Glasgow.

Renowned for their explosive live performances, Dead Pony have played Reading &

Leeds, Glastonbury, TRNSMT, and Download Festival, and completed a run of Don

Broco’s Download warm-up shows as main and sole support. They recently joined Twin

Atlantic on tour, appeared on select dates of You Me At Six’s farewell UK run, and have

just come off a major UK tour as main support to Skindred, alongside a standout

hometown appearance supporting Pale Waves at the Glasgow Barrowlands. This

December, they will join Kids In Glass Houses as main support on their UK tour.

Looking ahead to 2026, Dead Pony are set to perform at Slam Dunk Festival, with further

major live plans including a support slot with Twenty One Pilots at All Points East in

August.

Dead Pony are set to release EP “Eat My Dust” through ADA early 2026

With relentless energy both on stage and in the studio, Dead Pony continue to carve out

their place as one of the UK’s most thrilling and unmissable rising rock bands.
