Since their formation in 2000, Murder by Death has built a loyal following through their rich blend of indie rock, folk, and gothic Americana. Led by Adam Turla’s deep, resonant vocals and Sarah Balliet’s emotive cello, the band crafts songs that feel like stories from a shadowed frontier. Albums like Who Will Survive, and What Will Be Left of Them? and Bitter Drink, Bitter Moon have cemented their place as one of the most distinctive voices in the modern rock landscape.
A Murder by Death concert is as much about atmosphere as it is about sound. The set often moves from slow-burning, cinematic ballads to driving, whiskey-soaked rock, each song pulling the audience deeper into their world. Lighting is moody and minimal, focusing attention on the music, while the crowd sways, sings, and occasionally falls silent for the band’s most intimate moments. It’s a performance style that feels personal even in larger venues.
Seeing Murder by Death live is like stepping into a world built of dust, shadow, and melody. The emotional pull of their music only deepens when shared in the same space, where every note feels heavier and every lyric hits harder. On Yadara, you can buy tickets easily, check ticket prices, and secure your Murder by Death tickets for a night that lingers long after the final chord.
