Singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Rhiannon Giddens has announced European solo tour dates for the summer, featuring music from her new T Bone Burnett–produced debut solo album, Tomorrow Is My Turn, released last month on Nonesuch Records. The shows begin June 30 at Islington Assembly Hall in London and continue through July with stops in Paris, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Stuttgart, and Dublin, culminating in a set at the Cambridge Folk Festival on August 1. Tickets for the non-festival shows go on sale starting this Friday, March 20. Giddens’ bandmates from Carolina Chocolate Drops—multi-instrumentalist Hubby Jenkins, cellist Malcolm Parson, and multi-instrumentalist Rowan Corbett—are part of her touring band for Tomorrow Is My Turn.

Tomorrow Is My Turn "is a showcase for Ms. Giddens’s glorious voice," says the New York Times. "For all her technical control, her voice is a perpetually soulful marvel." NPR calls it "a scrupulously selected, richly realized collection of songs." Rolling Stone dubs her "one of the most promising voices in American roots music." The Sunday Times of London says she "manages to tap into the emotional core of everything she touches." The Irish Times exclaims: "This is one seriously impressive debut album."
