Atlanta, get ready for a night that spans four and a half decades of some of the most hauntingly beautiful music ever committed to record. On June 19, 2026, the legendary Australian post-punk icons The Church are bringing their monumental THE SINGLES: 1980-2025 tour to the intimate and electric Center Stage Theater — and this is one show that true music lovers simply cannot afford to sleep on.

A Legacy That Demands Your Attention

If you know, you know. And if you don't — it's time to get educated. The Church have been crafting atmospheric, guitar-drenched masterpieces since the dawn of the 1980s, building a catalog that influenced generations of alternative and indie artists. From the shimmering, hypnotic breakthrough of Under the Milky Way — one of the most recognizable songs in the history of alternative music — to the layered sonic landscapes that have defined their more recent work, The Church have never stopped evolving, never stopped pushing, and never stopped delivering.

Their longevity is nothing short of remarkable. In an era where bands flame out after a single record cycle, The Church have released music consistently across 45 years, earning a devoted global following that remains as passionate today as it was in 1980. Frontman Steve Kilbey is one of rock's great poets, and alongside his bandmates, he has created a body of work that rewards listeners every single time.

Why Center Stage Is the Perfect Setting

Atlanta's Center Stage Theater is one of the finest mid-sized concert venues in the Southeast — intimate enough to feel connected to the artists, spacious enough to deliver a full, powerful live experience. The acoustics alone make it a bucket-list venue for serious music fans, and for a band whose sound is as rich and textured as The Church's, it is the ideal stage. This is not an arena spectacle — this is pure music, up close and personal.

What to Expect on the Night

THE SINGLES: 1980-2025 is exactly what the title promises — a career-spanning celebration of the band's greatest singles across their entire catalog. Fans can expect:

  • Classic hits that defined alternative radio across multiple decades
  • Deep cuts that will thrill longtime devotees
  • Recent material showcasing the band's continued creative fire
  • The unmatched live chemistry of one of rock's most enduring lineups
  • An atmosphere that only Center Stage Theater can provide
