Angel Olsen‘s band will hang back as she takes the road solo on the forthcoming Songs From the Archive Tour. The singer and songwriter will perform 10 cities this September with a set list spanning her six-album discography. Maxim Ludwig, Runo Plum, Kyle Ryan, Greg Mendez, and Domino Kirke will join her as special guests on select dates.
The Songs From the Archive Tour will begin on Sept. 8 in Sonoma, California at the Gundlach Winery. The remainder of the run features stops as similarly idiosyncratic locations, including Ojai, California; Fish Creek, Wisconsin; Beverly, Massachusetts; Lebanon, New Hampshire; Portland, Maine; and more. Olsen’s final show on the tour is scheduled for Sept. 30 at the Count Casie Center for the Arts in Red Bank, New Jersey.
General sale will begin on Friday, April 19. Tickets can be purchased via the official Angel Olsen website.
Olsen’s most recent full-length album, Big Time, arrived in June 2022. Around this time last year, the musician shared the four-song EP Forever Means, which featured selections that didn’t make the final cut for Big Time. With those releases, Olsen prioritized a particular live experience during the creative process.
“Essentially, what I told everyone was, ‘I don’t need to turn a pedal steel on its head here, I just want to hear a classic,” Olsen told Apple Music in 2022. “What would the Neil Young backing band do if they reined it in a little and put the vocals as the main instrument? If you overthink things, you’re really going down into a hole.”
