Rhiannon Giddens, who is touring the US through the spring and summer, has announced a tour of the UK and Ireland in the autumn, featuring music from her recently released album, Freedom Highway. 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. The Guardian calls it a “powerful and timely set,” and Uncut named the "remarkably wise and timely new album" its Album of the Month. 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.
