Rex Orange County has shared details of live shows across the UK and North America, titled the ‘Finally: A Theatre Tour’. Find ticket details below.
Taking place later this year, the new run of tour dates will come in support of the vocalist’s forthcoming album ‘The Alexander Technique’ and see him embark on over 30 shows across the US and the UK.
The album will be the follow-up to 2022’s ‘Who Cares?’, and is set to arrive on September 6 via RCA. So far, ahead of the release, County has already dropped two singles, ‘Alexander’ and ‘Guitar Song’.
All live shows will be held in theatres, and the dates kick off in Chicago with two back-to-back nights at the Auditorium on October 4 and 5. From there, the schedule will see the musician take on various residencies across North America, including at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, Beacon Theatre in New York, the Straz Centre in Tampa and more.
The North American leg wraps up with two back-to-back performances at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver on November 25 and 26.
After the 30 US shows, he will head across the pond at the start of 2025 for the four remaining tour dates. These will all be held in London and take place at the Palladium between February 16 and February 19.
“For this tour, I’m going to play a select number of cities in carefully chosen theatre venues, but will be playing multiple nights within them,” he said. “Historically, with each album that I’ve released, I’ve always played bigger and bigger shows. But I wanted to do something different for this particular project because sonically the new songs lend themselves to being heard in a more intimate and traditional setting.
“These particular venues have allowed me to create a show with a theatrical stage set to further narrate the themes of the album alongside the music. I love playing live and I can’t wait to bring this new album to life across so many beautiful rooms and iconic stages.”
Tickets for all dates go on general sale at 10am local time this Friday (July 26). Find a full list of tour dates below and visit here to buy tickets.
