Modern English are back to melt with you. After being postponed a full year, the British New Wave act are finally embarking on their 40th anniversary tour in 2022, during which they’ll be performing their classic 1982 album After the Snow in full — yes, that includes “I Melt With You” — across North America.
The band’s extensive 36-date trek kicks off in West Palm Beach, Florida on March 12th, running through September. “When we finally play the whole of the After the Snow album for the first time on tour, emotions will run high,” frontman Robbie Grey said in a statement. “Expect a lot of pent up energy and excitement. It’s been a long time coming and will be worth the wait.”
If you can’t make it to the tour, fear not: Modern English have also just released After the Snow: Live From Indigo at the O2, a live collection featuring the songs from the album on CD, a CD/DVD set, and digital formats. You can also add it to your shopping list for this coming Record Store Day on November 26th, where it’ll be available exclusively on vinyl. In the meantime, check out their 2022 tour dates below, and find tickets via Ticketmaster.
