Ethel Cain will bring tour to St. Paul after release of her second album this year
Ethel Cain's penchant for balancing dark ambient textural soundscapes with pop hooks will be on display in September when her tour comes to St. Paul.
Cain's "The Willoughby Tucker Forever" tour will head to the Palace Theatre on Sept. 19.
The tour name comes from her upcoming album, Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You. It'll be Cain's second album released this year when it arrives over the summer. It follows Cain's heralded and, possibly, most experimental recording to date, Perverts, which was released in January.
The album's announcement characterizes Willoughby Tucker as a prequel to her 2022 debut, Preacher's Daughter. (Tucker is the name of Cain's high school boyfriend, who surfaced in the song "A House in Nebraska" off that debut record, per Pitchfork.)
The St. Paul stop is the second-to-last date of the tour's North American leg, which will have 9million opening at the Palace Theatre.
Tickets for Ethel Cain at the Palace Theatre went on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, March 28.
As part of the tour, Cain will partner with the Ally Coalition to donate $1 from every ticket to local organizations that support the trans community.
