Howard announced the post ponement of her 2020 North American
headline tour – including a June 9 performance at Celebrate
Brooklyn! in New York and a KCRW concert with Thundercat
and Georgia Ann Muldrow at the Hollywood Bowl in Los
Angeles (August 16). She (was set to) kick off the run on March
17 at Luther Burbank Center for the Arts in Santa Rosa, CA.
Howard will be touring in support of Jaime,
her debut solo album, which found a place on numerous “Best
Albums of 2019” lists, including The New York Times,
NPR, Rolling Stone and Pitchfork. “Stay
High,” the album’s first single, spent three weeks at No.
1 on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Songs chart. Views
of the official
video, which stars Terry Crews (“Everybody Hates
Chris,” The Expendables films, Deadpool 2), have
surpassed eight million.

The
track “History Repeats” was nominated in two GRAMMY categories
– Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song, bringing Howard’s
total career nominations to 11. She won four GRAMMY Awards in
her role as lead vocalist/guitarist for the chart-topping band
Alabama Shakes.
Howard – who has performed everywhere from the Obama
White House to the main stage at Lollapalooza, where she sang
with Paul McCartney at his invitation – won acclaim for
her 2019 tour. Magnet Magazine observed, “Howard turned
a lifetime’s worth of anguish, ecstasy and doubt into catharsis,
healing and beauty.” Minnesota’s Star-Tribune said, “She
strutted, slid and shimmied her way across the stage channeling
’60s Motown and soul music, ’70s funk and R&B and a little ’80s
pop and rock in her 75-minute set. And that was just the musical
side of things. Lyrically, the songs from her new album, ‘Jaime,’
were stacked like a Southern food buffet.”
