After a roaring spring tour celebrating the release of our politically charged
album Kleptocracy and follow up Part 2 tour this autumn, we’re looking ahead to a special
acoustic tour in Spring 2025. This tour will bring a fresh, stripped-back sound as we present
a new side to the Kleptocracy album, dive deeper into our back catalogue, and also paying
homage to traditional folk songs that have inspired Ferocious Dog from the start.
While Kleptocracy saw us expanding our sound with heavier rock influences and more Celtic
elements, this tour will offer a different kind of intensity rooted in the raw, unfiltered energy of
acoustic instruments (with a little help from the microphones). We want to give our fans an
up-close and personal experience of our music, offering a more intimate performance.
The acoustic setlist will include fan favourites from throughout our career, reimagined with
an even folkier twist, alongside renditions of traditional folk songs that reflect the same
themes of resistance and rebellion present in Kleptocracy. These are stories of struggle and
resilience that feel as relevant today as ever, and we’re excited to give them new life on stage.
This tour is a unique follow-up to the journey we’ve taken with Kleptocracy—from the
roaring full-band energy, we’re now inviting audiences to experience the heart of our music
in a more stripped-back setting. We’re looking forward to connecting with everyone in a way
that feels both nostalgic and new, drawing from the power of folk traditions to keep the spirit
of resistance alive. Taking things back to our roots—just as ferocious, but a little more
acoustic.
