2022 was the year touring resumed for the Cult. It was also the year they released a new album, Under the Midnight Sun. The album has been available since September on CD and LP, and of course digitally on all the usual platforms. The album was produced by Tom Dalgety.

Billy has created a new web site to chronicle his achievements and current activity. You can find it at www.billyduffy.com. Make sure you sign up to his mailing list to get the latest information.

If you're on Facebook there's a bunch of activity there. Brian Astbury, who is Ian's brother, has created a "Rare Cult" group where people can post photos of their rare items. There have been some really cool items show up on there - it's a great place to explore the true depth of collectables that the band have available. In addition the Band has a group along with each band member individually . There are plenty of interesting news tidbits to read about there.

As always, please feel free to continue to send in reviews of the shows this year (and previous years for that matter), it's great to have that information on the site for everybody to read.

Pop by the message board using the link on the right. Lots of fans dropping in to discuss various aspects of the band and side projects.

Have a look at the CultCentral Owner's List page. It's a list of all the numbered Cult items and where they are residing in the world. Feel free to E-Mail me your stuff, and I'll add it to the site.
