Carlos Alomar presents
 THE D.A.M. TRILOGY
Back to Berlin Tour 2025
A tour honouring David Bowie & Dennis Davis
16 European Dates On Sale Fri 31 January 2025, 10.00 (GMT)

David Bowie’s right-hand-musicians during his late-1970’s Berlin period reunite to celebrate the legacy of the albums they made together as Carlos Alomar presents The D.A.M. Trilogy - touring over 16 European dates in late 2025. Touring with original Heroes bassist, George Murray, for the first time since 1979, the special, audiovisual Back To Berlin Tour 2025 opens in the German capital’s Metropol concert hall on Fri 7 November 2025.

Honoring their work together, as well as Bowie’s enduring legacy, legendary guitarist, Alomar, who recorded with Bowie across 11 albums, and Murray pledge to faithfully perform arrangements from the three albums recorded in Berlin – Low, Heroes and Lodger. Having lost drummer, Dennis Davies, to cancer in 2016 the D.AM Trilogy band includes four additional musicians, including Tin Machine and Bowie’s Live Aid guitarist, Kevin Armstrong, to bring the intricacies of rarely, if ever performed songs vividly to life.

Opening the tour with two nights just 3km from Hansa Studios, the legendary creative HQ for Bowie and the band as they laid down century-defining songs and deep cuts, like D.J., It’s No Game and other songs that were never added to live sets. The band will then move on to perform in the UK and Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Belgium and France. In addition to Alomar, Murray and their band, the tour welcomes visionary video editor and Bowie archivist, Nacho, to complete the second of the two, essential pillars of Bowie’s legacy – vision. Renowned for his extraordinary work in curating and reimagining Bowie’s iconic visuals, Nacho will bring a dynamic, immersive video experience to the stage.

Seeing this tour as a way to give back to the community that has supported them for decades, Alomar explains the motivation to tour almost a decade after Bowie’s death.
?“Where other bands have toured Bowie’s songs extensively since his passing, these songs haven’t been performed the way they were meant to be. Until now,” he says. “The Spiders from Mars are well known, but the D.A.M. Trio remains rock and roll’s best-kept secret. It’s time to honor our legacy, including Dennis’s.
“The fans we’ve met along the way are the ones who have driven this. We feel obliged to do it because they’ve waited so long for us to return to these songs. This could very well be our last spin of Europe.”

With Bowie’s vocals being sung by New York-based singer, Cunio, the band brought together by Alomar includes not only Murray and Armstrong, but Tal Bergman (Chaka Khan, Joe Bonamassa, LL Cool J) on drums, Axel Tosca (George Clinton, Robert Glasper, Louie Vega) on keys and synths and Lea Lorien (Mary J Blige, Scissor Sisters, David Morales) providing backing vocals.

The D.A.M. Trio - Dennis Davis, Carlos Alomar and George Murray - emerged from a rich tapestry of musical experiences, each member bringing their unique talents to the forefront of David Bowie’s most experimental and iconic works.

Carlos Alomar began his career as a teenage guitar prodigy, performing with legendary acts at Harlem’s Apollo Theater. His early collaborations included Chuck Berry, James Brown and The Main Ingredient. In 1974, Alomar’s life changed when he first encountered David Bowie in New York, as the star sought a new musical direction following the release of Diamond Dogs. This partnership led to Alomar co-writing the hit song Fame alongside Bowie and John Lennon, marking the beginning of a long-standing creative relationship that spanned from Young Americans to the Berlin Trilogy and as late as 2003’s Reality album.

In 1976 Alomar formed the D.A.M. Trio with long-time friend and jazz drummer Dennis Davis, who later worked with Stevie Wonder, and bassist George Murray, who remained a key player with Bowie through the recording of Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) in 1980. In 1977 the trio was called upon to back Iggy Pop as well during the recording of The Idiot in Berlin, further cementing their influence in the evolution of experimental rock.

Their final live appearance with Bowie as a trio was in 1979 on Saturday Night Live, a memorable performance that showcased their tight musicianship and innovative sound.

After decades apart, Alomar and Murray reunited on stage at the David Bowie World Fan Convention in New York in June 2023, performing together for the first time since that final TV appearance. This brief but emotional reunion paid homage to their enduring legacy as one of Bowie’s most iconic rhythm sections, whose contributions helped define a generation of groundbreaking music.
