Hot off a giant coast-to-coast Canadian tour with Cancer Bats, Anciients are hitting the country’s coasts hard this summer. The heavy, heady and heartfelt progressive metal band are playing shows in Toronto, Ottawa and Quebec City around headlining Mosh the Rock and their appearance at Progstorm. Joining the Vancouver natives for this run are Unreqvited, Dawn of Ouroboros, Exist and Grey Lotus.
In September, Anciients are celebrating the 10 year anniversary of Voice of the Void with a special show at the Rickshaw Theatre presented by The Invisible Orange. The band’s second album won the 2018 JUNO Award for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year. Their most recent album, 2025’s Beyond the Reach of the Sun, won in the same category.
“We are thrilled to announce a short run of shows around our summer festival performances”, Anciients says. “We’re also very excited to announce our first hometown headline show in nearly two years to celebrate 10 years of Voice of the Void”.
