Californian five-piece Faith No More have announced they’ll play shows in Auckland and Christchurch in May. The shows will be the band’s first outside of the U.S since 2015.
Faith No More New Zealand tour dates:
- Auckland, Friday, May 8, Spark Arena
- Christchurch, Sunday, May 10, Horncastle Arena
The last time Faith No More performed headline shows in NZ was a decade ago in 2010.
The band’s long career has seen them morph from a cult underground outfit, to global chart-toppers, mixing metal to alt-rock to hip-hop to punk and more.
Fans can sign up for pre-sale tickets, which go on sale on Monday, Feb 10. General public tickets go on sale Wednesday, Feb 12 at midday via Frontier Touring.
Lending their support following Australia’s bushfire crisis, Faith No More will be donating $1 (plus gst) from each ticket sold across the AU/NZ dates to Animals Australia, and state fire services in affected areas, including: NSW Rural Fire Service, Country Fire Association Vic, SA Country Fire Service, Rural Fire Brigades Association Qld.
Faith No More is Mike Bordin (drums), Roddy Bottum (keyboards), Bill Gould (bass), Jon Hudson (guitar), and Mike Patton (vocals).
They’ve released seven studio albums to date: We Care A Lot (1985), Introduce Yourself (1987), The Real Thing (1989), Angel Dust (1992), King For A Day… Fool For A Lifetime (1995), Album Of The Year (1997) And Sol Invictus (2015).
