Neko Case, the acclaimed singer-songwriter and co-conspirator of The New Pornographers, has announced a monumental new North American tour, which is scheduled to commence this fall. She’s coming off of an intense small-venue book tour for her memoir, The Harder I Fight the More I Love You. Now, she’s taking to the road again with the release of the film to spread her message even farther. It became the centerpiece of a New York Times interview with her. It details her troubled upbringing in hardscrabble rural Washington and recounts her rise and fall in the music biz.
The full schedule of the new fall tour, which starts October 1 in Woodstock, New York, It will be making stops in every major city along the route like Boise, Idaho, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Denver, Colorado. With only 25 scheduled performances in total, the tour is currently set to conclude on November 25 in Austin, Texas.
On the tour, Case will be joined onstage by special guests. Expect to catch performers such as Des Demonas and John Grant on various dates! We think this collaboration will really bring her live performances to life! Dedicated fans and new concertgoers alike can expect a high-octane combination of new music and fan-favorite favorites.
Case’s illustrious musical journey never dulled since her last studio album, 2018’s “Hell-On.” Released in 2018, it’s hard to believe it’s been seven years, and she hasn’t let up yet! This past summer, her other band—the New Pornographers—came out with a new single, “Ballad of the Last Payphone.” This announcement followed closely behind the release of their 2023 album, Continue as a Guest. Currently, Case is busy preparing for the release of her new full-length solo LP. Her followers are abuzz with curiosity and expectation about what’s coming next!
As an artist, Case has always evolved in tandem with her music. Her memoir, which she completed shortly before her death, reveals both her vigorous strength and profound love for her profession. The combination of her literary accomplishments and her upcoming tour underscores her multifaceted talent and enduring appeal within the music community.
