PINK TURNS BLUE
- BLACK SWAN Tour 2026 -
with special guests Octavian Winters
German Post-Punk Legends Pink Turns Blue on Tour in Support of New Album “Black Swan” Since forming in 1985, German post-punk stalwarts Pink Turns Blue have refined their sound into something unmistakably their own—elegant in its minimalism, emotive in its delivery, and enduring in its relevance. From their early breakthrough with If Two Worlds Kiss to their newest release, Black Swan, the Berlin-based trio has remained a vital force in the international post-punk community, shaping and reshaping the genre across decades.
Black Swan, the band’s twelfth studio album, is an evocative response to instability—what the band calls a reflection on “unexpected events that derail what we took for granted.” True to form, Pink Turns Blue channel that disquiet into melancholic anthems laced with shimmering guitar lines, propulsive bass, and plaintive vocals. These are not songs of nostalgia but of reckoning—resilient and immediate, echoing the emotional urgency that defined their early work and continues to define them today.
To celebrate the album, Pink Turns Blue are embarking on a major tour, commencing in January 2026 (Spain), March 2026 (Latin America + USA), May (UK & Italy).

Octavian Winters was born in 2022, into the ghostly isolation of lockdown in San Francisco. Their sound mirrors the surrealism of that time, weaving together threads of the visceral and ethereal into shimmering layers with vocals that alternately soar and dive, as if carrying stories once told but half-remembered. In four short years the band has gained a reputation for tightly crafted songs that range from spaciously dreamy to dark and driving and exceptionally transporting live performances. On this tour, they will be featuring songs from their upcoming sophomore album, as well as from their critically acclaimed 2023 debut "The Line or Curve". Octavian Winters was recently featured at the 2025 A Murder of Crows festival in New York City and will bring their captivating sound to the 2026 Wave Gotik Treffen festival in Leipzig, Germany this upcoming May.
