In April Amos announced the album and a run of European gigs, giving fans hope that she would be headed to our shores too.

The North American leg kicks off Oct. 24 in Saint Paul, Minn., at The O’Shaughnessy. Cities on the itinerary include Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, New York, Atlanta, Nashville, Denver, Seattle and San Diego. The excursion wraps up with three nights at Los Angeles’ The Theatre At Ace Hotel Dec. 1-3.

Native Invader is due out Sept. 8 on Decca Records.

“The songs on Native Invader are being pushed by the Muses to find different ways of facing unforeseen challenges and in some cases dangerous conflicts,” Amos writes. “The record looks to Nature and how, through resilience, she heals herself. The songs also wrestle with the question: what is our part in the destruction of our land, as well as ourselves, and in our relationships with each other?

“In life there can be the shock of unexpected fires, floods, earthquakes, or any cataclysmic ravager – both on the inside and outside of our minds. Sonically and visually, I wanted to look at how Nature creates with her opposing forces, becoming the ultimate regenerator through her cycles of death and re-birth. Time and time again she is able to renew, can we find this renewal for ourselves?”

Fans can register now for a presale with Ticketmaster Verified Fan, which is working with Amos to get “tickets in the hands of fans, not scalpers or bots.” The presale starts July 12 at 10 a.m. and the general onsale begins July 14 at 10 a.m. All times local.
