Ani DiFranco announces the newest round of dates for “Unprecedented Sh!t: The Tour” in support of her 23rd album Unprecedented Sh!t. On August 27th, DiFranco heads out with acclaimed artist Hurray for the Riff Raff for nine shows, before joining up with Tune-Yards on September 9th for four additional performances. The new round of dates include a stop in Cincinnati, OH for a performance at Taft Theatre on September 3.
About the pairings, DiFranco shares, “Nothing heals my soul like music. And more specifically - making music in the company of other badasses. What a total joy it’s gonna be to share the stage with both Hurray for the Riff Raff and Tune-Yards this summer! I couldn’t be looking forward to it more.”
And Merrill Garbus of Tune-Yards said, ”Ani gave me my first glimpse into what it might mean to spit fire, to sing like my life depended on it. To be a joyful girl who was also allowed her rage. It means so much in this moment in history to be on these stages with her, to be part of this bitchin' lineage with her, to spit fire together and together keep the fire burning bright.”
Since “UnprecedentedSh!t: The Tour” began in January, shows have been selling out throughout the US. The next leg of “Unprecedented Sh!t: The Tour” begins on April 7th with most dates sold out already or with low ticket alerts. Righteous Babe artist Wryn opens the evening as their debut album Shapes will be released later this week. “I love Wryn’s music, and hope you do too” says DiFranco on Wryn joining the label and opening the next leg of the tour.
On June 11th, DiFranco will begin her European run at Royal Albert Hall in London. The evening will feature special guest (and Righteous Babe labelmate) Anais Mitchell, the Tony and Grammy Award-winning creator of Hadestown. She will spend the rest of June performing in Belgium, Italy, Netherlands, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom, which includes a return to the Glastonbury Festival after eight years. And on July 13th, DiFranco will take the stage at the renowned Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO, opening an evening with The Avett Brothers.
On April 18th the Film Forum in New York will present the US theatrical premiere of 1-800-ON-HER-OWN, a documentary on DiFranco’s rise. The film is a vulnerable look at her life today, as she struggles to balance artistry with the demands of family. For a full list of showings and ticket information go to anidifranco.film.
In addition to being an acclaimed recording artist, DiFranco is also a poet, author and Broadway performer. She released a collection of poems and paintings titled Verses in 2007. Her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream was a New York Times Top 10 best seller in 2019, and her children’s books The Knowing and Show Up and Vote are out now. In 2024, DiFranco completed a 5-month run on Broadway as ‘Persephone’ in Hadestown.
