Stryper frontman Michael Sweet has checked in to reveal that following the band's upcoming To Hell With The Amps acoustic tour, they will follow up with a full-on 40th anniversary tour kicking off September 13, 2024.
Sweet: "The anniversary tour will feature songs ranging across our entire discography. We’ll perform a set consisting of our classic songs, then play a second set containing more recent material. We will be changing outfits from a classic look to a modern look, with production to match. It will definitely be unprecedented because it’s important to come up with a unique way for fans to celebrate this milestone anniversary with us."
In addition, the band plans to offer an exclusive pre-show VIP experience for its loyal devotees. A 45-minute encounter with Stryper will include a private screening of a short film featuring archival footage and photos and a brief Q&A session with the bandmates.
As for future endeavors, the band just wrapped recording another full-length studio album Sweet describes as "all killer, no filler." The anticipated release date is fall 2024.
