English singer/songwriter/guitarist Lianne La Havas will return to the US for a series of intimate solo club dates starting at The McKittrick Hotel in New York City on Monday, February 1, 2016, followed by stops in Boston, DC, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Oakland, culminating with a show at Largo at the Coronet in Los Angeles on February 11. Tickets go on sale starting this Friday, December 11. See below for details and ticket links. For all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
The tour features music from La Havas's second album, Blood, which was released by Nonesuch/Warner Bros. Records in the US over the summer and has just been nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Urban Contemporary Album. The new dates come on the heels of her fall 2015 tour, which included a stop at NPR for a Tiny Desk Concert and ended with a guest stint on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert with house band Jon Batiste and Stay Human.
Upon the new album's release, Pitchfork said, "Blood is dynamic and poignantly self-assured in its introspection … an almost seamless album," and the Boston Globe said, "[Jamaica's] rhythmic pleasures permeate Blood, her most sonically diverse effort yet, pulsating with electronic flourishes that create a fascinating tension against the serene elegance of her voice … a beautiful album that builds on the buzz of her first one."
To pick up a copy of Blood, head to iTunes or the Nonesuch Store, where it's currently 15% off the prices listed on the site as part of our ongoing anniversary sale.
