Kraftwerk have announced an extensive 2022 North American tour, marking the band’s first live appearances since 2019. According to a press release, the upcoming tour will incorporate “music, 3D visuals and performance art” and is set to begin on May 27 in St. Louis, wrapping-up on July 10 in Vancouver.

Over the weekend the German electronic pioneers were recognized at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony as an Early Influence. The band had been nominated six times before finally receiving the award, which included a video tribute from Pharrell Williams.  Williams said: “The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a very special place. But I’m going to suggest that we create a new hall within the hall, reserved for artists who actually invented their genre, because Kraftwerk belongs there. Today, electronic music is everywhere. But what Kraftwerk did was groundbreaking and revolutionary.”

Tickets for Kraftwerk’s upcoming tour will be on sale to the general public Nov. 5.  For more details, follow Kraftwerk on Instagram.
