DENVER, Colorado — British 80s post-punk band Echo & the Bunnymen are celebrating 40 years of music with a 20-stop tour across the United States planned for late summer.

The band, known for hits like "The Killing Moon," " Lips like Sugar" and "Bring on the Dancing Horses," has announced a stop at Denver's Ogden Theatre on Sunday, Sept. 4, 2022.

"I can’t wait for this upcoming tour of America and Toronto. It will be a continuation of the U.K. tour we did in February/March of this year which was my favorite ever tour," announced Echo & the Bunnymen singer Ian McCulloch on the band's Facebook page.
