Aldous Harding is coming home.
The Aotearoa songwriter has announced a national tour for November, following the release of her new album Train on the Island, out May 8 via Flying Nun Records and 4AD.
Harding will play four shows across Kirikiriroa Hamilton, Ōtautahi Christchurch, Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland and Póneke Wellington, bringing the new record back to local stages after a huge run of international dates.
The album was co-produced with longtime collaborator John Parish at Rockfield Studios in Wales, the same studio where Harding recorded Party, Designer and Warm Chris. That creative partnership has shaped some of her most quietly strange and spellbinding work, so expectations are pretty high for this next chapter.
Before the New Zealand run, Harding will tour the UK and Europe from May to August, with fellow Flying Nun artist Vera Ellen joining her for select shows, before heading to the US in September and October.
Tickets go on general sale Thursday, May 7 at 11am local time, with the Live Nation pre-sale opening Tuesday, May 5 at 10am.
