English singer/songwriter/guitarist Lianne La Havas kicks off a fully sold-out tour of the United States at The McKittrick Hotel in New York City tonight. The show is the first in a series of intimate solo club dates stopping in Boston, DC, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Oakland, and culminating with a show at Largo at the Coronet in Los Angeles on February 11. See below for all the details.

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 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.
