Little Simz to Tour North America This Fall

Little Simz has announced her first U.S. headline tour in two years, supporting 'Lotus,' released earlier this month. It'll kick off in Toronto.

“Being an independent artist, I pay for everything encompassing my live performances out of my own pocket and touring the US for a month would leave me in a huge deficit,” she said at the time. Lotus, which earned a four-star review from Rolling Stone, finds Simz coping with other stressors, including a separation from her longtime friend and business partner, the producer Inflo, after suing him for an allegedly unpaid loan. “The public nature of her fallout with Inflo and how readily she tackles it on Lotus makes it a distinctly personal entry to her oeuvre – listening feels more like living in her skin than any project she’s done before,” the review noted.
