American rock band A Perfect Circle, formed in 1999 by guitarist Billy Howerdel and Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan, will visit New Zealand in December, marking their return to New Zealand following a 22-year absence!
A Perfect Circle fans have been waiting in anticipation for an announcement following the unveiling of a massive European tour last year, the band’s first headline outing since 2018. The tour kicks off June 3 in London, U.K. at the city’s O2 Academy in Brixton and wraps up at Mad Cool Festival on July 10 in Madrid. The run consists of both headline shows and festival appearances around the continent.
A Perfect Circle will perform at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Sunday 13 December.
Joining A Perfect Circle on their upcoming trek is Puscifer, the electro-rock outfit featuring Keenan, Mat Mitchell, and Carina Round. Known for blending dark electronic textures, post-punk atmospherics, and theatrical storytelling into a singular live experience, the band recently released their latest album, Normal Isn’t.”
