PVRIS have delayed their UK and Europe tour until 2023

PVRIS have postponed their upcoming tour of Europe and the UK, shifting its starting point from later in April to next January.The nine-month delay comes down to the band opting to focus on their as-yet-unannounced album, which frontwoman Lynn Gunn confirmed was officially “in progress” in a statement shared today (April 5).Gunn explained that the tour was initially “meant to be accompanied by a brand new PVRIS album”, but up to this point, she and her bandmates had been held back by “the unlimited amount of obstacles and setbacks brought on from the pandemic” as well as a lack of support from their former label, Rise Records.Expounding upon that note, she cited the label’s “lack of space, lack of time, lack of budget and conflict of priorities/interest regarding the PVRIS brand and community”, and said that as a result, it became “nearly impossible to have this album written, recorded, conceptualized, up to standard and ready for your consumption by the time of this tour”.Noting that PVRIS “is now free to move forward into this next chapter”, Gunn continued: “I never want to compromise the creative quality or integrity of our music and visuals.

This is something that unfortunately had to be done too many times on this past album cycle (we gave it our best despite the circumstances).

I refuse to do that moving forward.“PVRIS deserves better and you deserve better, as you are the sole reason we get to do what we do.”a note from Lynn.
