Temples: The BLISS Tour

Experience Temples in full psychedelic bloom as the British quartet brings The BLISS Tour to The Chapel in San Francisco. Blending hypnotic psych-rock, shimmering electronics, and the euphoric pulse of late-’90s dance music, the band is set to deliver an immersive night built around their adventurous new album, Bliss.

Joining Temples is Poppy Jean Crawford, a Los Angeles musician whose raw, unconventional approach draws from alternative rock, experimental music, and punk. The evening will also feature visuals by Zach Rodell, adding a striking visual dimension to the performance.

With Bliss, Temples—James Bagshaw, Thomas Walmsley, Adam Smith, and Rens Ottink—are embracing a renewed sense of creative freedom. The album moves beyond their established psychedelic sound, incorporating electronic textures, pulsing rhythms, looping melodies, and the bittersweet energy of classic dance music. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Air, Massive Attack, Portishead, Moby, Underworld, and Orbital, the band has created a sound that feels both nostalgic and distinctly forward-looking.

Songs such as “Jet Stream Heart,” “Vendetta,” “Blue Flame,” and “Megalith” highlight the album’s expansive range, shifting between soaring melodies, icy synths, hypnotic repetition, and fuzzed-out guitar. Rather than simply revisiting their past, Temples are using their influences as a launchpad for something new.

For fans of psychedelic rock, electronic music, dreamlike visuals, and adventurous live performances, The BLISS Tour promises an evening that engages both the ears and the imagination. Come ready to move, get lost in the atmosphere, and experience Temples as they enter a bold new chapter.
