It’s been a busy year for influential Aussie band The Church who are celebrating their 30th anniversary. Becoming the toast of the music industry after becoming 2010’s ARIA Hall Of Fame recipients, the Steve Kilbey fronted outfit planned a very special birthday celebration at the Sydney Opera House in April entitled ‘A Psychedelic Symphony’ which was a hit with punters and critics alike.
Now the band plan on taking the celebration on the road as they announce their ‘Future Past Perfect Tour’ where we’ll see the band perform three albums in their entirety from each decade of their existence, including the critically acclaimed Untitled #23, Priest=Aura and Starfish.
Untitled #23 released in 2009 is widely regarded as a modern classic and has received glowing reviews from the music press, including an unprecedented 5 star review in Rolling Stone magazine. Priest=Aura (1992) has constantly been voted as a favourite of church fans over the years and Starfish (1989) is the album that put the church on the map in America.
The ticket price includes an exclusive A4 program featuring album and single sleeve artwork, selected lyrics and photographs of Steve Kilbey, Peter Koppes, Tim Powles and Marty Willson-Piper. This seated show will include two intermissions and will last for three and half hours with no support. Playing the albums in reverse chronological order the band ask you to simply close your eyes, sit back and join us on this special journey through the decades.
