Depeche Mode books Portland concert, Global Spirit Tour

Reach out, Portland: Depeche Mode will headline the Moda Center on Oct. 23.

The synth-pop legends will play a 28-date run in North America as part of their Global Spirit Tour, which will take over Europe first from May to July. The world tour comes alongside a new album, "Spirit," their 14th studio LP in a 36-year career. The band's most recent effort was 2013's "Delta Machine," with a live set, "Live in Berlin," released the following year.

22 2017 concerts to plan for right now

The English band remains founding trio Dave Gahan, Martin Gore and Andy Fletcher.

The shows will raise funds for charity: water in a partnership with the watchmaker (and Jay Z favorite) Hublot. Ticket pre-sales begin on March 6 via DepecheMode.com, with Citi and AT&T customer pre-sales to start March 7 and the regular on-sale set for 10 a.m., March 10 via Livenation.com and Ticketmaster outlets.
