One of the ALL time indie greats, The House Of Love announced dates for a North American tour. The tour is in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the band's landmark self-titled debut album and the first tour of North America since 1992.
The stellar album, The House Of Love was released in 1988; in 2018, the band released a five disc expanded edition of The House of Love, plus performed a handful of celebratory 30th anniversary gigs in the U.K.
The North American tour will be similar to the UK anniversary shows, however it is important to note that the shows will NOT include the current House Of Love lineup. Instead, Guy Chadwick will be performing with a "new band of great musicians." According to Chadwick, he was unable to persuade the other members of The House Of Love to tour North America:
"Over the years we have had many offers to come to North America but I have sadly never been able to persuade the band, which is why I have put together a fantastic new band of great musicians to do this tour - and it sounds like vintage House of Love."
The tour bypasses the Detroit area, but rolls through several other road-trippable cities including Chicago, Toronto, and Philadelphia. View the tour itinerary below and head here to grab tickets.
