Ghost have announced dates for a spring US tour.
The 6-week run in support of 2015’s “Meliora” will kick off in Montclair, NJ on April 13.
“We wish to inform you that Ghost will be embarking on the second chapter of the Black To The Future Tour in Spring 2016,” says the band. “Tickets for the tour go on sale this Friday, January 15th at 10am local time. We suggest you tune in and get yours before it sells out.”
Ghost recently picked up their first Grammy Awards nomination for “Cirice”, the lead single from “Meliora.”
A finalist in the Best Metal Performance category at next month’s event in Los Angeles, the song goes up against Slipknot’s “Custer”, Lamb Of God’s “512”, “Thank You” by Sevendust and “Identity” by August Burns Red.
The 58th Annual Grammy Awards will take place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 15 and broadcast on CBS starting at 8 p.m. ET.
“Meliora” delivered Ghost their first-ever US Top 10 album when the project debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 8 with opening week sales of 29,000 copies.
