DESSA ANNOUNCES HEADLINE TOUR KICKING OFF NOVEMBER 10th; NEW ALBUM DEBUTS #8 ON BILLBOARD HEATSEEKER CHART
DOOMTREE ARTIST TO BRING SONGS FROM NEW LP TO CITIES THROUGH THE EASTERN US
Following the Billboard charting release of new record Castor, The Twin, Doomtree recording artist Dessa has announced a run of tour dates that will bring her genre-defying talents as a rapper, singer, and lyricist to select cities across the East Coast. Backed by a trio of superb instrumentalists, her personal, captivating live performances blend elements of rap and cabaret in an elegant presentation that is equal parts riveting and invigorating. The tour marks Dessa’s return to cities including New York, Boston, Chicago, amongst others.
Castor, The Twin captures new arrangements for ten of Dessa’s strongest previously released songs, in addition to the new single “The Beekeeper”. Based around the live trio she assembled to tour on her debut album A Badly Broken Code, the album immediately resonates as an intimate performance of live players, with fingers sliding on frets and raw, expressive vocals. The organic arrangements push Dessa’s lyrics to the fore, showcasing the powerful imagery and narratives that define her songwriting. As arresting as the album is, the effect pales in comparison to Dessa and band in person. See full dates below.
