ERASURE (Andy Bell and Vince Clarke) today announce details of a surprise EP celebrating the first night of their UK tour. Out on CD, limited edition purple cassette, and digital platforms tomorrow, Ne:EP is a five-track companion piece to their latest album, The Neon, with four new tracks sitting alongside “Secrets,” which originally appeared on The Neon Remixed.

The UK tour kicks off in Glasgow before a series of dates that includes a long awaited show at The O2 in London on October 17 with additional special guest Blancmange.
 
Erasure’s North American tour launches January 14 in Miami before wrapping up in late February at The Venetian in Las Vegas. Bag Raiders will open each date with a DJ set. See the touring itinerary below and visit Erasure’s website for further details.
 
The duo recently released their eighteenth studio album, The Neon, which went into the UK Official Albums Chart at #4, their highest chart position since I Say I Say I Say, which in turn gets a deluxe 2CD expanded hardback book release on November 5.
