Tears For Fears new album: release date, tour, and everything you need to know

Tears For Fears

When is Tears For Fears’ new album out?

The new album, Tears For Fears’ seventh, will be released on 25 February 2022, via Conchord Records. The Tipping Point will be their first record of new material since 2004’s Everybody Loves A Happy Ending.

“Before everything went so right with this album, everything first had to go wrong,” says Roland Orzabal. “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.”

“If that balance doesn’t work on a Tears For Fears album, the whole thing just doesn’t work,” adds Curt Smith. “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.”

  3. Long, Long, Long Time
  4. Break The Man

  8. Master Plan
  9. End Of Night
  10. Stay

Will Tears For Fears be touring in 2022?

Roland and Curt will kick off a UK tour on Friday 1 July in Shropshire, taking in 16 dates in total. Alison Moyet will support.

“We couldn’t be more excited to start playing concerts again,” Smith says. “We’ve missed seeing our friends on the road around the world and the energy of performing live.”

Orzabal add: “We’re looking forward to playing our favourites from the new album as well as our classics from throughout the years.”

Tickets for Tears For Fears’ upcoming UK tour go on sale at 9am on 19 November, with a presale for AEG members starting two days earlier.
