Faith No More Announce First Shows in More Than a Decade with System of a Down

Faith No More have confirmed their first live shows in more than a decade, teaming up with System of a Down for a run of co-headlining dates in Australia and New Zealand in January and February 2027.

The veteran rock bands have so far announced four shows, beginning at Sydney’s Accor Stadium on January 22nd, followed by dates in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Wellington.

For Faith No More, the concerts will mark their first confirmed live performances since August 2016. The band had been scheduled to return to the road in 2020 and 2021, but those plans were canceled first due to the COVID-19 pandemic and later because of frontman Mike Patton’s mental health struggles.

Earlier this year, Faith No More bassist Bill Gould confirmed that the band was planning to reunite in 2027, telling the Rock Talk podcast, “Yeah, we’re gonna do it. We’re gonna play. Yeah, we’re gonna do it.”
