50 OFFICIAL LIVE RECORDINGS
AVAILABLE TO ORDER NOW
DEPECHE MODE are proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with Live Here Now that will see 50 dates on their current world tour recorded and released as limited edition CDs and digital downloads.
DEPECHE MODE–DAVE GAHAN, ANDY ‘FLETCH’ FLETCHER and MARTIN GORE–will play to more than two and a half million people across 31 countries during the “Touring The Angel” 2005/6 World Tour.
The first live recordings happened April 27 at San Francisco’s Shoreline Amphitheater and April 29 when the band headlined the Coachella Festival in Indio, CA. After numerous dates across the United States conclude May 21 in Washington, DC, DEPECHE MODE return to Europe for a series of stadium shows and festival appearances that will last throughout the summer.
Each concert will be recorded and mixed, giving fans a unique high-quality souvenir that truly captures the energy and atmosphere of the legendary DEPECHE MODE live experience. The two-disc sets are limited editions and are packaged with deluxe artwork featuring new and exclusive photographs by Anton Corbijn. Fans can order at the venue on the night of the shows or online at www.depechemodelive.com.
DEPECHE MODE are one of the most influential and ground breaking bands of the last 25 years. Their new album PLAYING THE ANGEL, released last October, reached Number 1 in 16 countries and has sold two million copies worldwide.
Live Here Now was established in 2004 to produce legal official concert recordings, offering a legitimate alternative to widespread live music piracy. Their clients to date include Moby, Goldfrapp, Mylo, Erasure, Heaven 17 and Throbbing Gristle.
