Duran Duran has announced additional dates for their Spring 2017 World Tour, in support of their album Paper Gods. The new U.S. and South American dates include shows in Texas, Florida, Georgia and Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Tickets are on sale here.
The multi-platinum band will travel to South America to perform alongside such artists as Metallica and The Weeknd at the Lollapalooza festivals in Brazil, Argentina, and Chile. They will also headline a show in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. These dates will mark the band’s first shows in this part of the world since 2012.
Paper Gods was released in September 2015 and entered the Billboard album chart at #10, earning the British band their highest charting album in 22 years. The album was produced by Grammy Award-winners Nile Rodgers and Mark Ronson, among others.
The group ruled MTV during the network’s 1980s heyday, ultimately earning 11 Top 10 U.S. singles including two #1’s “The Reflex” and “A View to a Kill.” Their breakthrough hit was 1982’s “Hungry Like a Wolf.”
