Depeche Mode
6 Music Festival, 2017

Highlights from #DepecheMode's headlining performance at the 6 Music Festival in Glasgow. The band had not played at the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow for more than 30 years.

#depechemode's My Joy could have been a Bond Theme .

Polls in the UK close in a couple of hours. The first results should be announced in about 4 hours from now, and Basildon (@depechemode's hometown) may be first. Why that matters:

Every year for the past 9 years, I've hosted a reading challenge where I take a musician's entire discography and turn each song into a reading task.

For 2024, we're doing it with @depechemode's studio albums. check it out and I hope you'll join us!

Warm up for @depechemode's new tour (<a href="http://www.nme.com/news/depeche-mode/97028)" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky">http://www.nme.com/news/depeche-mode/97028) with this wonderful episode of @Coverville: <a href="http://coverville.com/episodes/the-depeche-mode-cover-story-iii/" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky">http://coverville.com/episodes/the-depeche-mode-cover-story-iii/
