Tears for Fears are touring the UK with their latest album ‘The Tipping Point’.
The group will release its first record in 17 years on February 25 and they’ll hit up venues across the country as part of its accompanying World Tour.
Kicking off July 2022, the band will be joined by special guest Alison Moyet for the trek and they “couldn’t be more excited” to play the new record live.

Speaking about going back out on the road, Curt Smith said, “We’ve missed seeing our friends on the road around the world and the energy of performing live.”
“The Tipping Point has been a long time in the making and we are looking forward to playing our favourites from the new album as well as our classics from throughout the years,” Roland Orzabal added.
Tickets go on sale November 19.
The new album features 10 tracks including lead single The Tipping Point, out now.
Of the LP, Roland explained: “Before everything went so right with this album, everything first had to go wrong, it took years, but something happens when we put our heads together.
“We’ve got this balance, this push-me-pull-you thing – and it works really well.”
Curt Smith added: “If that balance doesn’t work on a Tears For Fears album, the whole thing just doesn’t work.
“To put it in simple terms, a Tears For Fears record and what people perceive to be the sound of Tears For Fears – is the stuff we can both agree on.”
‘The Tipping Point’ is available to pre-order on CD, Deluxe CD and vinyl. A Super Deluxe Edition CD is also available, along with signed CDs.
