New Order<\/a> and Pet Shop Boys<\/a> will embark on a co-headlining North American tour this September.<\/p>\n

The 11-date Unity Tour will kick off September 5th at the Budweiser Stage in Toronto and include stops in cities like Boston, New York, Chicago, Vancouver and San Francisco before wrapping October 2nd at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Tickets will go on sale February 28th at 10 a.m. local time, with complete information available via New Order<\/a> and Pet Shop Boys<\/a>\u2018 respective websites.<\/p>\n

The Unity Tour marks the first time New Order and Pet Shop Boys \u2014 two of the defining acts of the U.K. post-punk and new wave scene \u2014 have come together like this, although the bands do have some shared history. In 1989, New Order\u2019s Bernard Sumner formed the duo Electronic with ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr, and their debut single, \u201cGetting Away With It,\u201d featured Pet Shop Boys\u2019 Neil Tennant. Tennant and his Pet Shop Boys bandmate Chris Lowe would later co-write \u201cThe Patience of a Saint\u201d with Electronic for their 1991 self-titled debut.<\/p>\n

As for more recent projects, New Order just wrapped a residency<\/a> at the Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami that found them performing a stripped-down version of their special live show So It Goes. <\/i>(The original debuted in 2017 and was a collaborative effort with artist Liam Gillick and a 12-piece synthesizer orchestra.) Prior to their fall tour with Pet Shop Boys, New Order will play a string of shows in Japan and Australia.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pet Shop Boys, meanwhile, just released their new album, <\/a>Hotspot<\/a>. <\/i>The LP marks the band\u2019s 14th studio LP and first since 2016\u2019s Super<\/i>. The group will tour Europe and the U.K. in support of the album throughout the summer before heading over to North America in the fall.<\/p>\n
