— Following the release of her 2022 album, NO THANK YOU, rapper Little Simz announces her upcoming North American tour.
Following her recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Little Simz is announcing a North American tour. The tour, which takes place this fall across 10 cities, will mark her first shows on this side of the pond since 2019. To say the least a lot has happened since then, including Little Simz releasing two landmark albums and joining the cast of Netflix’s massively popular Top Boy.
2021’s Mercury Prize winning epic Sometimes I Might Be Introvert propelled her to a Best New Artist award at the 2022 BRIT Awards and December 2022’s surprise album NO THANK YOU received universal acclaim. Now the decorated artist returns to North America ready to bring the two stellar albums to life on stage across the continent.
Tickets go on sale on Thursday, April 13th at 10 AM local time. Fans will have the opportunity to purchase tickets during the Artist Presale on Tuesday, April 11th (10 AM local) through Wednesday, April 12th (10 PM local), and the Spotify Presale on the same dates and times. Tickets will be available at the official Little Simz website.
If 2021’s Sometimes I Might Be Introvert catapulted Simz into the big leagues, crashing into the top 5 of the albums charts, collecting Mercury Music Prize, MOBO, Ivor Novello and BRIT Award wins and earning her the biggest live audiences in the UK and Europe yet, NO THANK YOU is another delicious left field turn for 29-year old Simbiatu Ajikawo. Sleek, succinct and utterly propulsive, it’s Simz’ defiantly punk rock, two fingered salute to conformity and fame, and all the expectations and restrictions that come with. Recorded with her regular collaborator Inflo, this is Simz at her most free, daring and spontaneous.
