This news comes on the heels of her new album Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You, which debuted to the highest praise from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Cut, The Face, Stereogum and more.
Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You serves as a prequel to Cain's globally adored 2022 debut album Preacher's Daughter and recounts the story of Ethel's first love, Willoughby Tucker, and their humid, laden romance. Cain produced and recorded the album over the past year in her studios in Daleville, AL, Coraopolis, PA and Tallahassee, FL. The writing of the songs themselves spans her entire career as Ethel Cain, with some dating from the earliest days of the project and its mythmaking.
The North America and Europe leg sold out completely upon on sale in March, with 170,000 tickets sold in just a few weeks. Kicking off today, Tuesday 12 August, at Seattle's Paramount Theatre, Cain will headline her biggest tour to date with venues including New York's Radio City Music Hall, Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium, Berkeley's Greek Theater, London's Eventim Apollo, Paris' L'Olympia and many more.
Ethel Cain is the creation of Florida-born multidisciplinary artist Hayden Anhedönia. After years spent teaching herself to produce at home in the Florida panhandle and releasing various projects, Cain moved to Indiana and singlehandedly wrote, produced, recorded and mixed her acclaimed 2021 EP Inbred from the basement of the old church where she lived.
Cain's debut album Preacher's Daughter, a multimedia work that took more than four years to assemble, was released in May 2022 to praise from The New York Times, NPR, Vogue, W Magazine, V Magazine and more, with many critics naming the album one of the best of the year. Cain has spent the years since playing sold out shows and packed festival sets around the world; walking in New York and Paris fashion weeks and collaborating with Givenchy, Miu Miu and Calvin Klein; and collaborating and sharing stages with Florence + the Machine, Mitski and more.
