ACTORS ANNOUNCE NEW TOUR DATES FOR SPRING NORTH AMERICAN TOUR
ACTS OF WORSHIP OUT NOW VIA ARTOFFACT RECORDS

Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at THIS location. All tour dates below.
“Our whole team has been working tirelessly to make this tour happen. See you soon!” ~Jason Corbet
In Fall 2021, the band released their latest album Acts of Worship via Artoffact Records, which saw features on several “Best of 2021” album lists. It is now available on Bandcamp and Spotify via Artoffact Records.
The album was produced by Corbett at his own Jacknife Sound in Vancouver. On the release, he has stated: “It’s about embracing who you are and having the confidence to do what you feel and not be afraid. I made the first ACTORS album without caring about who would hear it. I think people can feel honesty in music whether they realize it or not. The new album is exactly where I wanted to go with ACTORS. It expands on the last album lyrically and sonically. It’s the next step of our journey.”
ACTORS’ 2018 album, It Will Come to You, also released on Artoffact, put the band’s moody, anthemic style on the map, earning these words from PostPunk.com: “Vancouver’s brilliant post-punk and new-wave quartet ACTORS continue their flair for sonic cinematics… The atmosphere quivers with singer Jason Corbett’s crooning reverb augmented by shivering guitars and stark synths.” Three years later, the follow-up, Acts of Worship, is an album of driving beats, massive hooks, and dramatic atmospheres – equally melancholy and electrifying, it plays like the soundtrack to an imaginary Michael Mann film.
