When Ms. Regina lying low for the better part of a year now, we at CoS are forced to look elsewhere for as catchy-as-hell sounds from jaw-droopingly beautiful female singer/songwriter. Fortunately, St. Vincent has stepped up to the challenge thanks to the forthcoming release of her new album, Actor, and the fact the women more commonly know as Annie Clark to friends and family will soon be hitting the road in support of it.
Following a few appearance at next week’s music portion of South by Southwest, Ms. Clark will hit the road for a month-long north American tour beginning in late May at Somerville, Massachusetts’ Somerville Theatre. From that point on, 19 dates follow, highlighted by stops at Sasquatch!, Bonnaroo, and Birmingham, Alabama – don’t ask me why I included the latter.
As for an early taste of what one can expect both from St. Vincent’s upcoming sophomore album and North American tour? Perhaps you should give a listen to her recent performance at Noise Pop…
Get Actor everywhere beginning May 5th via 4AD Records…
