Echostage, Washington, D.C.
Ms. Lanza just released her second album, Oh No, to rave reviews in 2016. The LP was described as “a gorgeous and deadly pop music Manifesto, full of pent-up nervous energy set to release,” by Pitchfork.
Below is the video for the album’s title track:
The new North America dates start with three nights in Canada, the first of which is in Edmonton, Alberta, on May 9. Then there are West Coast dates and a few Northeast dates to close. The last night of the run is May 21 in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Lanza has a bunch of European gigs booked this spring, including appearances at Lisbon Dance Festival in Portugal, Rewire Festival in Netherlands and Leeds Print Festival in the United Kingdom. The Canadian producer is also set to perform at Love Saves The Day festival in Bristol, England, on May 28.
