To promote the album, Erasure will embark on a UK and European tour, commencing in April. The tour includes stops in London, Manchester, Berlin, Copenhagen, Stockholm, and other cities. Tickets for the UK and European leg go on sale on October 2nd through Erasure's official website. North American tour dates will be announced at a later date. The duo's previous studio album, Day-Glo (Based on a True Story), was released in 2022, following their 2020 album The Neon.
