Peter Murphy will soon be honoring 35 years of Bauhaus with a tour in which he plays nothing but past songs from the symbolic goth rock band he helped create.
Formed in England in 1978, Bauhaus gained notoriety with their ambiguous post-punk sounds. The band broke up in 1983, but got back together in 1998 and 2005, mostly thanks to fan demand.
Murphy garnered success with his own solo album Ninth, in 2011, and is currently working with producer Youth (The Verve, Killing Joke) on his next. He will have a full band backing him on the Mr. Moonlight Tour, however. This will also be the first time in nearly 7 years he’s played full Bauhaus sets, and the first time he’s ever done so without original band members.
Since 2006, I have included my Bauhaus work into my solo work as a way of tipping my hat to my own audience…those who discovered my early work as well as new and old fans of those years strong wishes to hear the music of my band crackle and spark in the live arena. Being the foremost advocate of this Bauhaus work, I decided the time was ripe to at last give a pure Bauhaus experience in one Mr. Moonlight world tour. Mr. Moonlight is alive and well, don’t doubt it.
Below is a complete listing of the Spring and Summer tour.
