k.d. lang and the Siss Boom Bang will celebrate the release of Sing it Loud by playing the complete album live at two intimate shows the week the album is released. They will perform at the Troubadour in Los Angeles on Monday, April 11, and at (Le) Poisson Rouge in New York City on Thursday, April 14.
 
Sing it Loud, scheduled for release by Nonesuch Records on April 12, is lang’s first record made entirely with a band of her own since the pair of albums with the Reclines that launched her career more than 20 years ago. In June, lang and the Siss Boom Bang—comprising Joe Pisapia (a multi-instrumentalist who co-produced the album with lang and serves as musical director), Daniel Clarke (keyboards), Fred Eltringham (drums/percussion), Joshua Grange (baritone guitar, dobro), and Lex Price (bass)—will launch their first tour together. They will be performing material from Sing it Loud and songs from throughout lang’s career on the North American run, which will keep them on the road into the fall. They will also play the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California, on May 1. See below for initial details.

Sing it Loud is available for pre-order now on kdlang.com and here in the Nonesuch Store, where purchase includes a manuscript lyric sheet, a limited number of which will be signed by k.d. (The version of the album available from kdlang.com includes four additional tracks.)

“Few singers command such perfection of pitch,” said the New York Times’ Stephen Holden in a live review. “Her voice, at once beautiful and unadorned and softened with a veil of smoke, invariably hits the middle of a note and remains there.”

In addition to producing the album together, lang and Pisapia co-wrote five songs for Sing it Loud, which was recorded in Nashville at Pisapia’s Middletree Studios. She collaborated with Clarke and Grange on an additional three tracks, including the lead single, “I Confess,” which is available now on iTunes. The title track, penned by Pisapia, and a striking version of Talking Heads’ “Heaven” round out the collection.

Below are the currently confirmed tour dates and initial details on the later tour dates. For more information and ticket links where available, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

    Silkroad and Rhiannon Giddens's 'American Railroad' Album Out Now

    American Railroad, the new album from the Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens, is out now. It is the culmination of four years of research, collaboration, and music-making, having brought Silkroad artists all across the US to uncover and uplift stories of those who built the transcontinental railroad and connecting railways across North America. "The result is a tapestry of stories, traditions, and music that have shaped our multifaceted cultural identity, and that must be heard and recognized," Giddens says. Also out now are a performance video of the track "Mahk Jchi" and the first episode of the American Railroad podcast series. The US fall tour continues to November 23.
