Tears for Fears on Tour 

Tears for Fears is so legendary that their unique interpretation of synth-pop is almost synonymous with '80s pop culture. Noel Gallagher of Oasis was even quoted referring to them as "the Beatles of the '80s." The group's masterful melodies and thought-provoking lyrics have captivated fans for over four decades, and now, they're back on the road for the trans-Atlantic The Tipping Point Tour. The tour takes its name from the duo's 2022 album, The Tipping Point, which is said to reflect the group's personal and professional "tipping points." The album's title track details life and struggles with grief and loss but does so in a characteristically uplifting way that only Tears for Fears can achieve. With such an emotionally charged yet upbeat album, fans can expect an unforgettable live show. Don't miss your chance to see Tears for Fears on their highly anticipated The Tipping Point Tour in 2022. 

Tear for Fears Live in Concert

Tears for Fears was formed in Bath, England, in 1981 by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. The two derived the band name from psychologist Arthur Janov's unconventional primal scream therapy. Inspired by synth-pop artists like Gary Numan and Depeche Mode, the group developed a unique sound that quickly gained a devoted following. The band released their debut album, The Hurting, in 1983. The album reached No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart, and the single "Mad World" reached No. 3 in the UK and has remained popular since. The band's second album, Songs from the Big Chair, was released in 1985 and was an even bigger hit than their first. The album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and went multi-platinum in the UK and U.S. It included hits like "Shout" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," which have maintained mainstream popularity to this day. The group split in 1991 after releasing their third platinum-selling album, The Seeds of Love, in 1989. Orzabal continued Tears for Fears as a solo act and released the albums Elemental in 1993 and Raoul and the Kings of Spain in 1995. Luckily, the pair reunited in 2000 and released the aptly named album Everybody Loves a Happy Ending in 2004. The band has toured since and released The Tipping Point in February 2022. The Tipping Point is their sixth UK Top 5 album.

    Amazing!

    by CJ on 8/10/23

    Drove out from Indiana for my daughter's first concert and they did NOT disappoint! They sounded great and played 6 new tracks from their latest album. Security at the venue even escorted my 8 yo daughter to the front row for her favorite song. It was perfect!

..but

    by MelMel on 8/8/23

    Let me tell you about my but, Riverport/UMB Bank Pavilion/ Hollywood amphitheater has one good feature: Free drinking water. I guess the sound is ok, on the whole though not a good place to see any band you love. Bands, just say NO

    Band Great! Venue = a few problems

    by ATB on 8/8/23

    Tears for Fears gave a fabulous performance. I saw them at the Acrisure Arena. My tickets were on the side stage, and if you was great, except that the side stage lights basically acted like spotlights shining right into the audiences eyes. Please move those lights up. Tilt them up at least slightly, please!

    Wow!

    by Clevs on 8/7/23

    I was blown away by the tears for fears show in Palm Desert! Voices were strong and despite playing a lot of new songs from the Tipping Point, which is amazing, btw, they still managed to play a variety of songs from their entire catalog including favorites and a few rarities. The venue felt intimate. Sound quality was great and the temps in the venue were so efficient that I started out cold! Sure beats melting in 105 degree heat. See the band! Worth every penny.

    Tears for Fears Rocked It

    by Kristin on 8/7/23

    Roland’s voice does not disappoint. He can still make all the notes. I loved their backup singers, especially Lauren Evans. They had a big sounds. Such a diverse set of songs. I really enjoyed The Tipping Point songs, too. They are so talented. Even my teenage daughter loved the concert. Their music is timeless. And Curt and Roland are humble and great with the audience.

    Tears for Fears @ Hollywood Bowl 2023

    by BB on 8/7/23

    What an amazing experience!!! It still warms my heart when I realise how fortunate I was to be at this concert - born and raised in Cape Town, I loved and lived their music as a Teenie. Tears for Fears still have what it takes to captivate and intrigue their audience and they have done well to use their wisdom to create a beautiful album. Overall, a well-organised concert at a great venue - definitely worth the money spent!
