Sufjan Stevens Announces First UK And European Tour In 5 Years

| On 23, Feb 2011

Sufjan Stevens has announced his first UK And European tour in 5 years. Full details of all his appearances in April and May 2011 are below, including two dates at the Royal Festival Hall and previously announced headline sets at Primavera and The Great Escape festivals.

Sufjan Stevens’ album ‘The Age of Adz’ was well worth the wait, receiving universal critical acclaim and the level of salivation was borne out by reaching Number 7 in the US Billboard charts and the Top 30 in the UK the week of its release. The single ‘Too Much’ was A-listed on 6 Music as well as regular plays on Radio 1 from the likes of Zane Lowe and Rob Da Bank.

On the back of all this ecstatic news, phenomenal word of mouth for a self released project and some ravishing US shows in Autumn 2010, Sufjan will tour Europe with a full band and lands in the UK for the first time since November 2006. If the US dates are anything to go by then we should be prepared for one hell of show, covering all the biggies; “love, heartache and the end of the world”. Oh, and fun too.

DM Stith will open all shows.
