Front 242 head to North America for 'Black To Square One' tour



Front 242 will be hitting the road in North America in September for a run of live shows.

The Belgian electro-wizards previously announced a show in Chicago as part of Coldwaves, but now they've announced plans for an extensive six-week Black To Square One tour of North America. The tour kicks off in September and includes a Detroit area stop September 21st at the Magic Bag in Ferndale. View the list of dates below and head here for more details on the tour.

The news of the tour comes as a relief considering only a few weeks ago Front 242 postponed touring plans after Jean-Luc De Meyer had fallen ill. Luckily De Meyer's medical status has improved and he's said to be on the road to recovery after his recent hospitalization and medical situation that sidelined him from touring. Though no details about his illness were disclosed, De Meyer is said to be thrilled to be on the mend and is looking forward to reconnecting with friends and fans on the road later this year. Head here to catch up with Front 242.
