CHVRCHES Announce New 2022 North American Tour Dates
CHVRCHES have revealed details of a huge new North American tour for 2022.
The Scottish trio are fresh off a three-song performance at last week’s BandLab NME Awards 2022 in London, where they performed with The Cure‘s Robert Smith.
After a UK tour that begins tomorrow (March 10), the band will head to the US and Mexico from the end of April, playing a host of shows that take them up until the end of June. The new headline dates begin in late May.
During their set at the BandLab NME Awards 2022, the band performed their track ‘Asking For A Friend’ from 2021 album ‘Screen Violence’ and then teamed up with Smith for a world exclusive live premiere of ‘How Not To Drown’. To cap the set off, they joined Smith in covering Cure classic ‘Just Like Heaven’.
After the performance, the band’s Martin Doherty described the experience to NME as “really, really scary,” adding: “Honestly, I’ve never practiced four notes so much in my life.”
Chvrches started working on their fourth album in February 2020. Doherty and Mayberry worked on the album from Los Angeles while Cook worked on the album from Glasgow. Chvrches started teasing the lead single for their fourth album, given the working title CHV4, on 9 April 2021. On 18 April 2021, Chvrches announced “He Said She Said” as the lead single for the album and it premiered on BBC Radio 1 on 19 April 2021.
A second single, “How Not to Drown”, featuring Robert Smith of the Cure, was released on 2 June 2021. The same day, the band announced their fourth album, Screen Violence, which was released on 27 August 2021. On 12 July 2021 they released the album’s third and final single, “Good Girls”. On 25 August 2021, the band performed “Good Girls” from the album Screen Violence on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
