The tour begins at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London on November 17, followed by shows in Bristol, Birmingham, Milton Keynes, Pocklington, Manchester, Dublin, Glasgow, and Gateshead. The Guardian, reviewing Giddens' recent Australian tour, calls the concert “magnificent … a virtuoso slice of Americana." See below for details; tickets go on sale this Friday, May 5. For all the latest, including details of her current US tour, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

Freedom Highway was released on Nonesuch in February to critical acclaim.

Pitchfork exclaims: "Rhiannon Giddens emerges as a peerless and powerful voice in roots music."

Freedom Highway is available now on iTunes, Amazon, and in the Nonesuch Store and can be heard on Spotify and Apple Music.
