Earlier this year Yeah Yeah Yeahs lead singer, Karen O announced that she would be releasing her debut solo album, Crush Songs, September 9th on Julian Casablancas’ Cult Records. Today we learn that KO will be playing some intimate sets to support the new album.
The mini tour will see the singer play shows in New York, Los Angeles, London, and Berlin between September 9th (release date) and October 7th. See the full itinerary below.
According to a press release, Karen said: “I’m very pleased to announce that I’ll be performing Crush Songs to some very intimate audiences. If you’re in the mood for love please come join my crush odyssey at these limited engagements. I apologize in advance that these shows are so few but I guess that makes them all the more special if you can make it SO don’t miss out! LUV KO.”
Due to this short tour, they’ll be holding a series of album listening sessions in 21 cities across the world on August 27th. The press release states: “the events will take place at secret locations in homes and apartments where hosts will play the deluxe edition of Crush Songs—featuring O’s own words and artwork—for private audiences in each city.”
