The Church announced a new leg of North American dates celebrating the 30th anniversary of Starfish. [The classic album was released in 1988 and a global 30th anniversary tour in celebration of the record took place in 2018, but due to demand the anniversary will extend into 2019.]
Similar to last year, the tour will feature the band's current iteration and NOT the classic Starfish lineup (thus no Marty Wilson Piper or Richard Ploog), and will see the band perform Starfish in full along with a selection of fan favorites. The North American leg kicks off with a Detroit area stop April 11th at the Magic Bag in Ferndale. Tickets for the tour go on sale this Friday, January 25th.
