Joanna Newsom has announced her first live performances in three years, taking place at theaters in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Milwaukee this fall. The singer-songwriter will play a total of eight nights in those four cities, with all tickets going on sale April 5th.
Unlike the full-band shows on her most recent 2015-2016tour, Newsom will be performing these dates solo. A press release promises rare and intimate performances featuring her voice, harp and piano, and probably some t-shirts in the lobby.
Newsom, who loves a good rock pun, is calling these shows THE STRINGS/KEYS INCIDENT AN EVENING WITH JOANNA NEWSOM. Her last album, Divers, arrived in 2015.
