The Psychedelic Furs and The Jesus and Mary Chain are hitting the road together for a North American co-headline tour! It’s a double dose of greatness bound to rattle some eardrums and stir up nostalgia. The fabulous Frankie Rose will open all the shows. Check out the dates below.
The Psychedelic Furs, who kicked off in 1977, carved out their niche with a mix of punk rock and art rock. Raspy-voiced Richard Butler led the charge, grabbing attention with their self-titled debut in 1980. But it was their 1981 album, Talk Talk Talk, that really put them on the map. Featuring the hit single Pretty in Pink, which got a second life as the theme of the 1986 John Hughes film, the track became an anthem for the ages. Throughout the ’80s, the Furs polished their sound and expanded their audience with gems like 1984’s Mirror Moves. Despite playing musical chairs with band members and taking a break in the ’90s, they bounced back with touring and recording, proving you can’t keep a good band down.
The Jesus and Mary Chain, comprising the dynamic duo of Scottish brothers Jim and William Reid, burst onto the scene in 1983 and shook up the alternative music world. Their debut album, 1985’s Psychocandy, is the kind of record that makes music snobs’ hearts skip a beat, blending ear-splitting feedback with sugar-sweet melodies. Just Like Honey nailed their signature sound and had critics throwing roses at their feet; known for their chaotic live shows and mysterious vibes, they inspired a legion of bands and were key players in the birth of shoegaze. After a well-deserved break, the brothers Reid made a triumphant return in 2007, continuing to dish out new tunes and hitting the stage with the same rebellious spirit.
Tickets for all tour dates go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 21, at 12 PM local time.
