St. Vincent announces huge Fear The Future Tour
St. Vincent has announced a massive run of live shows as part of her vibrant Fear The Future Tour.
The run - her first extended jaunt in over two years - starts in October and finishes in December. St. Vincent - aka Annie Clark - will be playing the O2 Academy Brixton and Manchester's O2 Apollo as part of the tour.
As well as standard entrance, there will be 'enhanced experience' packages that include a signed poster, film screening, a photo with St. Vincent's guitar, and more.
General sale for all tickets begins on 30 June.
Clark's been hella busy since the end of her self-titled record campaign, contributing to the gigantic Bob's Burgers boxset, releasing a horror film, pursuing a career in food service, and designing a guitar... amongst other things.
In December last year Clark revealed some details about her the follow up to her eponymous 2014 album, including that it'd be out in spring (although this was clearly incorrect).
“I’ve been able to step back and reflect and not just be in the tour, record, tour, record cycle that I’ve been in for about 10 years," Clark told Guitar World. "I think it’ll be the deepest, boldest work I’ve ever done... I feel the playing field is really open for creative people to do whatever you want, and that risk will be rewarded - especially now that we have such high stakes from a political and geo-political standpoint. The personal is political and therefore the political can’t help but influence the art. And only music that has something pretty real to say is gonna cut the mustard.”
