Hozier's spring North American headline tour starts in Buffalo

Multi-Platinum singer/songwriter Hozier will embark on the “Wasteland Baby! Tour” in spring 2019. The 26-date run kicks off March 10 at Shea's Performing Arts Center in Buffalo and includes stops in Nashville, Austin and Los Angeles. Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. local time on Friday.

Every ticket purchased online for the just-announced headline dates will include a CD copy of Hozier’s forthcoming album, “Wasteland, Baby!” Fans will also have the option to upgrade their CD to a standard LP copy of the album for an additional charge.

Hozier said, “I’m very excited to announce the U.S. tour, which will coincide with the release of the new album ‘Wasteland, Baby!’ I’ve enjoyed incredible support from fans in North America and I am thrilled to be going back there soon to play this music live.”

Last month, Hozier released new song “Movement” from his forthcoming sophomore album, which will be released in the spring via Columbia Records. “Movement” was written by Hozier and produced by Markus Dravs and Hozier. The Irish singer/songwriter also shared the official video for “Movement.”

Hozier recently concluded his sold-out fall tour across North America in support of “Nina Cried Power.’’ The EP’s title track, which features vocals from multi-Grammy Award-winning artist and performer Mavis Staples and instrumentation by renowned Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Booker T. Jones, peaked at No. 1 at Triple A radio and was featured as one of NPR Music’s Top 100 Songs of 2018.
