Kraftwerk have announced that they’ll be heading out on a North American tour in 2022.
It comes after the German electronic music pioneers were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame on Saturday night (October 30).
They were inducted by Pharrell who delivered a video speech presenting them with the award. This was later followed by a video tribute from artists including Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore, LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy, the Human League’s Philip Oakey and Run-DMC’s Darryl McDaniels.
The group’s renowned 3D tour will touch down in 24 North American cities between May and July next year, kicking off in St. Louis on May 27 and finishing in Vancouver on July 10. The tour will take place in New York, Chicago, Austin, Detroit, Minneapolis and many others.
