About Burning Witches

Burning Witches is a Swiss heavy metal band that formed in 2014, built on the kind of straightforward metal philosophy that doesn't require much explanation: fast riffs, loud and clear production, and a vocalist who can actually hit her notes. They've carved out a solid lane in modern heavy metal without pretending to be something they're not. Their earlier work established them as competent practitioners of classic heavy metal aesthetics—think late-80s production clarity applied to genuine songwriting. Songs like "Hexenhammer" and "Arson" showcase the band's ability to write hooks that stick around after the song ends, which is rarer in heavy metal than it should be. They're the kind of band that appeals to people who actually like metal rather than the idea of metal, with a focused approach that respects the listener's time.

Their shows are straightforward metal gigs—tight, competent, and heavy. Crowds stay engaged because the band isn't phoning it in. No surprise flourishes or stage production theater, just solid execution that makes the material land harder in a room full of people.

Known for Hexenhammer, Arson, The Crucible, Conjuration, Torched

Burning Witches + Dallas

Burning Witches touched down at Sundown at Granada in November 2024, delivering a setlist that moved between their signature heavy sound and some unexpected detours. They opened with "Unleash the Beast" and built momentum through "Sea of Lies" and "Dance With the Devil" before pivoting to "Flight of the Valkyries"—a choice that showed their willingness to stretch beyond pure metal brutality. The band closed out with "Holy Diver," a cover that landed harder than it had any right to, proving they understand Dallas crowds appreciate a band that doesn't take itself too seriously. It was the kind of show that reminded you why mid-sized venues matter.

Live Music in Dallas

Dallas has never been a traditional metal stronghold, but it's developed a genuine appreciation for heavy music that doesn't fit neatly into genre boxes. The city's rock venues have become increasingly comfortable hosting bands that blur lines between metal, hard rock, and theatrical heaviness. Burning Witches fit that mold perfectly—they're heavy enough for the purists but theatrical enough to draw curious crowds who might not otherwise venture into metal territory.

Dallas road trip to see Burning Witches?

Stay in Uptown or the Design District — both have actual walkability and better restaurants than most of the city. Hit Uchi for inventive Japanese food before the show, or Mister Charles for French-leaning bistro cooking. Spend an afternoon in the Nasher Sculpture Center if you want something quieter; it's genuinely good and way less crowded than you'd expect. Deep Ellum's worth walking through for the murals and general vibe, though keep expectations modest. The Sixth Floor Museum covers JFK's assassination if you want something weightier. Catch drinks somewhere in Bishop Arts before heading to the venue.
