Massive Attack was scheduled to tour North America in spring in honor of the 20th anniversary of their third studio album
The English electronic music will begin their North America trip in San Diego on September 1st, and they will wrap the tour in New York with two shows on September 26th and 27th in Radio City Music Hall.
The band also announced that proceeds from Mezzanine Anniversary tour merchandise will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.
“As the ‘Mezzanine XXI’ show contains some explicit material from the war in Iraq, the band felt it was important to donate to Medecins Sans Frontieres who continue to be active in the region.” – said the “Teardrop” duo in a press release.
Released in 1998, Mezzanine is the band’s commercially most successful album to date, having topped the charts in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom while breaking into top 10 in 12 other countries. It also received significant critical acclaim by the critics.
