Written by Lucinda Williams is heading out on a US tour this spring in support of her new album, World’s Gone Wrong. The veteran singer-songwriter has announced dates in six different states in May, starting with a show at Asheville, North Carolina’s Orange Peel on May 14. Check out a full itinerary below.
The run—which includes stops in Philadelphia, New York, and Washington, D.C.—will precede a series of UK dates Williams announced back in February. After wrapping up her US dates with a show at New York’s Beacon Theatre on May 29, she’ll take a breather before heading to Shrewsbury, England for the town’s annual folk festival from August 27 through 31. She’ll also play in London, Salisbury, and Birmingham in September.
Williams released World’s Gone Wrong, her 16th studio album, in January. It featured Brittney Spencer and Mavis Staples, the latter of whom joined Williams for a cover of Bob Marley’s “So Much Trouble in the World.” Williams’ last album before that, Stories From a Rock n Roll Heart, came out in 2023.
