Happy news for sad people: The Cure just announced their first North American tour since 2016. Though eccentric frontman Robert Smith said a new album called Songs Of A Lost World would arrive last year and it never came, the “Friday I’m In Love” band’s upcoming run represents an exciting time and hopefully means new material will finally be released soon.
The tour kicks off in New Orleans in May and ends in the beginning of July in Miami. It includes a few nights at LA’s Hollywood Bowl and NYC’s Madison Square Garden. They’ll be bringing along The Twilight Sad to open up.
