Former Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy today announced he’s being forced to postpone his 15-night residency at The Chapel in San Francisco until 2018 after nodules were discovered on his vocal cords that will necessitate treatment and an extended period of recovery.

Former Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy will perform a 15-night residency at The Chapel in San Francisco in June and July, performing “a retrospective of his greatest solo albums in their entirety” along with a handful of classic tracks from his prior band. Tickets for the concerts go on sale Monday.

Peter Murphy today released his first new single in more than six years: ‘I Spit Roses’ — which can be streamed here and is a track that will be featured on the former Bauhaus leader’s upcoming album ‘Ninth,’ which is due out in June.

Former Bauhaus leader Peter Murphy has set a June 7 release date for his ninth solo album — the aptly titled ‘Ninth,’ originally due out last fall — while also finalizing and formally announcing a 29-date U.S. tour this spring.

Ex-Bauhaus leader Peter Murphy took to his Facebook page today to update fans on a number of projects, including his Dalis Car reunion with Mick Karn (sessions being ‘next week’) and the pending release of his new solo album Ninth (‘shouldn’t be too long now’).

The bat-like Peter Murphy — who hits the big screen next week with a cameo as a vampire in ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ — today announced he’ll release his ninth solo album, the fittingly titled ‘Ninth,’ in the fall, following this summer’s Dirty Dirt Tour.
