The Church w/30th Anniv. Acoustic Tour

Doing a full career overview + passing out some free goods.

By Fred Mills

Australia's The Church have just announced the "An Intimate Space" tour of North America for April and May. The acoustic outing isn't merely to promote the recent Untitled #23 (Second Motion Records) album, however, as the plans are to cover, in a rather unique fashion, their full 30 year career.

At the shows the band will do a track from each of their albums - but in reverse chronological order. Or, as the band puts it, "This original show will have the audience gliding softly down through the years, opening with a track from Untitled #23 before embarking on a fantastic voyage through time ultimately arriving at the first Australian album, Of Skins And Heart where it all began."

But wait, there's more. The band has put together an exclusive EP, Deadman's Hand, which features the title track plus unreleased material, and concertgoers will all receive free copies of the EP at the shows.
