Tears For Fears are coming to Scarborough Open Air Theatre with special guest Alison Moyet.

The legendary pop duo have today announced UK tour dates in support of the forthcoming release of 'THE TIPPING POINT' - their first new studio album in almost two decades.

They will be coming to Scarborough on Saturday 16th July.

Tickets go on general sale at 9am next week on Friday 19th November via ticketmaster.co.uk

Speaking about going back out on the road Curt Smith said: “We couldn’t be more excited to start playing concerts again. We’ve missed seeing our friends on the road around the world and the energy of performing live.”

Roland Orzabal added: “The Tipping Point has been a long time in the making and we are looking forward to playing our favourites from the new album as well as our classics from throughout the years.”

When asked why make The Tipping Point now, Roland Orzabal explained: “Before everything went so right with this album, everything first had to go wrong, it took years, but something happens when we put our heads together. We’ve got this balance, this push-me-pull-you thing – and it works really well.”

Curt Smith added: “If that balance doesn’t work on a Tears For Fears album, the whole thing just doesn’t work. To put it in simple terms, a Tears For Fears record and what people perceive to be the sound of Tears For Fears – is the stuff we can both agree on.”
