Depeche Mode will tour North America and Europe in support of their new album, Delta Machine.
The dates will open on August 22 in Detroit with the schedule running through October 8 in Phoenix, AZ. A total of 19 dates have been announced so far.
“I’m really looking forward to getting out there and performing. There are so many die hard Depeche Mode fans who have been with us every step of this journey that I can’t wait to see. I also hope that we gain some new fans with the release of Delta Machine, and I look forward to exposing them to a great Depeche Mode live performance,” said Dave Gahan.
Martin Gore added, “I enjoy being in front of an audience because our songs really take on a life of their own when performed live. When we’re performing, the stage almost becomes a mirror for the people who have been there since the beginning, and we become a reflection of our audience. I’m looking forward to this tour for that very reason.”
The band will also make an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman tonight (March 11) which will include a Live on Letterman long form set before the show’s taping. They will also appear at SXSW in Austin this week.
