THIS SUMMER: Psych Furs/Church double bill @ ROMT



and
22 August 2015

The Psychedelic Furs and The Church will team up for the first time ever for an extensive tour of North America beginning on August 8th in Buffalo, NY and wrapping on September 9th in San Diego, CA.
 
Originally from the U.K., The Psychedelic Furs scored major hits with “Love My Way,” “Pretty In Pink,” “Heaven,” “The Ghost In You,” and “Heartbreak Beat,” Releasing seven studio albums and several compilations over the course of their career. Over the past thirty years the band's concerts have become must-see events and have quickly made them a consistent player in the touring industry, as they continue to sell out venues worldwide.
 
The Church will be touring in support of their 25th studio album titled Further/Deeper, which was released in North America this past February to rave reviews.  The band recently completed their first North American tour in the states in four years, with key performances at SXSW and theNoise Pop Festival.
 
“The Psychedelic Furs has always been one of the bands the church have always held in high regard,” remarked Steve Kilbey. “Tours together have been mooted before but alas, the stars never aligned!  Finally we will be treading the boards around America with them in August /September and I really think this is a most excellent package for lovers of fine music and all things groovy. Very excited and looking forward to it immensely. Bring on August, please!”
 
A video for “Laurel Canyon” from Further/Deeper debuted this morning on Billboard.com.  You can watch the clip here:
 
Tickets for most shows will go on sale this Friday morning. For up to date information on both bands visit: http://www.thepsychedelicfurs.com and http://thechurchband.net
