The Cult, The Mission, and a Cathedral

THE CULT
thecult.us

Chris Wyse, The Cult's bassist and frontman of Owl, is in the middle of a Summer tour - stopping in at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis this Tuesday, August 6th.

For this so-called "Electric 13" tour, Wyse will be playing The Cult's album Electric in its entirety. Although this album was a platinium-selling album with hits like "Love Removal Machine" and "Wild Flower", please note that their breakout song "She Sells Sanctuary" is on their previous album Love (which I suspect will likely be played on this tour).
