Temples: The BLISS Tour

British psychedelic rock band Temples perform at The Atlantis on their BLISS tour, bringing their signature 1960s-influenced sound to Washington, D.C.

Temples are a British psychedelic rock band originating from Kettering, Northamptonshire. Formed in 2012 by James Edward Bagshaw and Thomas Edison Warmsley, the group emerged during a renewed wave of retro-leaning guitar acts and quickly gained attention for their meticulous studio production and vintage aesthetic. Their musical identity draws heavily from 1960s garage rock, pop, and art rock, blending soaring vocal harmonies, shimmering fuzz guitars, and intricate analog synthesizer arrangements. Over successive studio albums, they have refined a distinct sonic palette that bridges classic melodic structures with modern psychedelic textures.

The bill also features Gift, joining the Washington, D.C. date.

The Atlantis hosts concerts and shows in Washington, providing a performance space for touring acts in the local area.
