Many of the artists behind 2020’s best albums were unable to tour in support of their creations due to the pandemic, but thankfully, it appears that trend won’t hold true in 2021: The Weather Station (Tamara Lindeman), for one, has announced a North American and European tour behind her widely acclaimed album Ignorance, one of our favorite records released this year so far.
Lindeman will showcase her new sound—a jazzy, propulsive departure from her former folk stylings—alongside a full band on her tour, performing at Bonnaroo, Summerfest and Pitchfork Music Festival (plus a rogue Detroit show) in September before playing her way across her native Canada throughout November. The tour resumes in the U.S. in January 2022, criss-crossing the country through the end of February before hopping the pond to play the U.K. and Europe in March and April. Tickets for all shows go on sale this Friday, June 11, at 10 a.m. local time.
Paste tapped Ignorance opener “Robber” as one of 2020’s best tracks after its release last October, and were equally effusive in our assessment of the record as a whole. Zach Schonfeld called it “a stunningly assured plunge into a sleek, buzzing jazz-pop wilderness” in his review, praising Lindeman’s melodies, in particular, as “the best and most urgently felt of her career.” Now, don’t you want to hear those with your own two ears?
