Influential alt-metal act FAITH NO MORE, which recently announced performances at both Riot Fest and Knotfest in September, has confirmed a trio of U.S. headlining performances the same month:
- Sep. 16 – Maryland Heights, MO @ Saint Louis Music Park
- Sep. 21 – Pittsburgh, PA @ Stage AE
- Sep. 22 – Newport, KY @ Ovation
The band said: “We’re excited to be able to play live again. Looking forward to that moment, all of us together, the smells, the sweat, the noise. Thanks for being patient. Bring it on!”
Tickets for the newly announced headlining performances go on sale this Friday, June 18 at 10 a.m. CDT / 11 a.m. EDT, with a pre-sale underway on Thursday at the same time (code available via FNM.com). f**kED UP will open on the three headlining dates.
FAITH NO MORE initially reunited for touring purposes in 2009, twelve years after issuing its previous studio set, “Album Of The Year”, and followed that up with 2015’s “Sol Invictus”. In May, FAITH NO MORE moved its scheduled summer 2021 European back to the summer of 2022.
FAITH NO MORE is Mike Bordin (drums), Roddy Bottum (keyboards), Bill Gould (bass), Jon Hudson (guitar), and Mike Patton (vocals). The San Francisco-born, platinum-selling band have released seven studio albums: “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). “Sol Invictus“ debuted atop the international sales charts: #2 in Australia, #4 in Germany, and #6 in both the U.S. and UK. Rolling Stone dubbed the 10-song album “triumphant,” the New Yorker called it “a reminder of everything that made Faith No More great in the first place,” and the Los Angeles Times said, “Faith No More has a history of defying expectations, and that’s what it’s doing again with Sol Invictus.”
