Kraftwerk have announced a North American summer tour celebrating the German electronic-pioneers’ 50th anniversary.
The 27-date tour begins on June 19th at the Moore Theatre in Seattle, WA. The band will then go up and down the West Coast with shows in Vancouver, Oregon, and California before moving inland to Utah and a show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO on June 29th. Following a run through the South, Kraftwerk will head eastward with shows on the East Coast and in the Midwest.

The run of concerts, marking the band’s first tour of North America in four years, will also feature Kraftwerk’s expansive 3-D audiovisual experience at every stop. The concert blends three-dimensional visual elements along with performance art synched up to the band’s music.
“Our music is changing in time, so we always play different versions,” lead singer and keyboardist Ralf Hütter said of the 3-D concerts in 2015. “Sometimes we change the tempos and sound, sometimes there’s different traffic on the autobahn. It’s all real. That’s what makes it interesting. Our compositions are like minimalistic film scripts or theater scripts. We can work with this; it’s never going to be the same. It changes over the years.”
Tickets for Kraftwerk’s North American go on sale Thursday, February 27th, at 10 a.m. local time.
