Katy B announces UK tour for October
By Josh Haggis
Katy B has announced a nine-date tour of the UK for October.
The singer will tour in support of her new album Little Red, with dates in cities including Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle and London.
Katy B also has UK live dates coming up later this month (March) and a number of festival dates booked in this summer.
The latest single from Little Red, Crying For No Reason, debuted inside the top five on the UK’s Official Singles Chart – and the album shot straight to number one last month (February).
Katy Brecently told Attitude that Little Red is a very different album to her debut.
She explained: “My early twenties has definitely been different to when I wrote On a Mission. I was a student then and everything was kind of happening for the first time: falling in love, going out, not having my mum tell me what time to come in anymore – it was like, ‘Whoa, I’ve been let off the leash’.
“Whereas now I’ve moved out of my parents’ house and I’ve had to be a bit more responsible for everything: myself, my house, my career, my relationships, my actions – you know, everything. I feel like there’s a lot to work out in life, and I think that’s really what songwriting is for me: it’s sort of working life out, really.”
