The band released their new single “Mercy” last week
British metalcore upstarts President are returning to North American. Launching in 2025 and operating under the cloak of minimalism and anonymity, President have been cultivating intrigue with each single and live performance. Refusing to conform to the traditional structures of genre or identity, President prioritize intent over image.
Today, the band announces its upcoming North American 2026 headline tour, with support from Cenobia and Showing Teeth on select dates. Fresh off their first-ever full U.S. run supporting Bad Omens, President will return this fall to headline venues across the continent.
Tickets will be available starting with an artist and Citi presale in select venues beginning on Thursday, April 2 at 10 am. The general on-sale begins on Friday April 3 at 10 am. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Thursday, April 2 at 10 am until Thursday, April 2 at 10 pm through the Citi Entertainment program.
Last week, President unveiled the new single “MERCY,” which is all about perfectly executed dynamics — mixing memorable melodies and heavier-than-granite riffs with gritty breakdowns. The result is another unforgettable anthem.
About the song, President say, “Throughout history, religion has been tied to profound division and loss. This song is a reflection on that reality, and a way for me to come to terms with what it means on a human level.”
More news about future President live rallies will be revealed shortly.
“MERCY” follows “ANGEL WINGS,” which arrived in February. Watch the video here. The song was tipped by Rock Sound as “a blend of bubbling synths, spine-tingling melodies and crushing riffs,” while Revolver declared that the song “refined their mix of modern metal, pop and electronic music, contorting itself from twitchy programmed beats towards a cavernously djenting boom.” Vice stated that President’s “style is deeply compelling as it’s paired with a refreshingly honest approach to songwriting.”
Built to exist outside the noise, President are building something that invites deeper investment — designed to be discovered, not sold. President said it best in a recent interview with Revolver, saying that “the music industry has elements of fast fashion to it these days. Things just come and go. Everything’s really quick. Everyone’s shouting for attention and there’s just so much noise, and it just becomes a fucking conveyor belt. [We] wanted to step back and not be a part of that. But if people are interested, and they want to enter into this world, we’ll grab them with open arms.”
President’s debut EP, King of Terrors, was released in fall 2025.
