Faith No More Tickets

FAITH NO MORE IN CONCERT:

Following a ten-year hiatus, hard-hitting funk rockers Faith No More returned in 2015 with a new album and the same captivating and dynamic live performances that made them a household name. Pitched halfway between alternative metal and straight-up funk, the band always gets heads banging and booties shaking at their live shows. Lead singer Mike Patton has all the crooning chops of a classic balladeer, but he sings with a punk rock edge that makes his angst-ridden vocals undeniably infectious. While he runs and jumps around the stage, the rest of the band gets down to the groove on hits like “Epic” and “We Care a Lot”. As the band hits the road in 2015 in support of their first new album in almost 18 years, ticket buyers can expect all of Faith No More’s classics as well as new material off Sol Invictus.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Faith No More began in San Francisco in 1981 when founding members Roddy Bottum (keyboards), Billy Gould (bass), and Mike Bordin (drums) broke away from their previous band. Vocalist Chuck Mosley joined in 1983 and sang on the 1985 hit “We Care a Lot”, but the group didn’t truly take off until singer Mike Patton replaced Mosley. The band's 1989 breakthrough album The Real Thing included the top 10 hit “Epic”, which was nominated for a Grammy Award and received heavy airplay on MTV. The band released three more albums before announcing a hiatus in 1998 to focus on other projects. Rumblings of a reformation began when Faith No More played some one-off shows in England in 2009, though the group dismissed the prospect of recording new material. Following a full-fledged reunion tour, though, Faith No More thrilled fans with the announcement that they would release their seventh album Sol Invictus in 2015.
