UK Rising Star Jordan Rakei Confirms US Tour Dates

Grammy-award nominated multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, producer, and songwriter Jordan Rakei has confirmed an extensive live tour with new dates announced for the US including shows in New York, D.C., Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and more. Rakei is touring in support of The Loop coming out on May 10 on Decca UK/Verve.

The Loop, Rakei’s fifth album, marks his recent signing to Verve Forecast and Decca UK. Recorded at RAK Studios, the album was self-produced by Rakei and mixed by Ben Baptie (Moses Sumney, Beck, U2). This is by far Rakei’s most cohesive work to date. Through The Loop’s 13 tracks, Rakei steps away from the DIY sound he was once known for with bold orchestral arrangements and an Odyssean-style narrative that charts a course through times of darkness and hope.

The record is coming off the back of a host of exciting recent announcements. First was his 21-date UK & EU tour in support of the album, with a run of US dates added today—find the full routing below. Beginning this autumn, the run includes an additional Royal Albert Hall show added after the initial date sold out immediately. Next, he announced a run of in-store shows for the week of album release in May, with Rough Trade East selling out in minutes and appeared on the first Glastonbury line-up reveal. Last week, the BBC announced that Jordan will be performing his very own BBC Prom in July alongside the Royal Northern Sinfonia orchestra.
