Patty Griffin is set to tour North America in promotion of an upcoming eponymous album.

The new dates will run from Feb. 28 in Los Angeles to April 20 in Houston. Venues haven’t been revealed yet, but tickets will go on sale Jan. 18. There will also be European and additional North American dates revealed.

Before the solo dates, Griffin is scheduled to play the “Girls Just Wanna Weekend,” event at Hard Rock Hotel in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico, from Jan. 30 to Feb. 3. She will be joined at that event by Margo Price, Maren Morris, Indigo Girls and The Secret Sisters.

Griffin is releasing her eponymous project via her own label, PGM Recordings, via Thirty Tigers March 8. Most of the album was recorded in her Austin, Texas, home after her battle with breast cancer. She released the first track of the album, “River,” today via People.

Last year most of Patty Griffin’s reported shows were in performing arts centers and theaters. She reported a $28,779 gross at Narrows Center For The Arts in Fall River, Mass., July 24, with 423 tickets sold.

In 2016 and 2017 Griffin also played “Lampedusa: Concertsfor Refugees Tour,” to raise money and bring awareness for refugees in the U.S.
