(July 19, 2024) keshi —the acclaimed Houston-born singer, songwriter, producer and
multi-instrumentalist— announces that he is set to embark on a headlining world tour this fall
and winter in support of his forthcoming sophomore album, Requiem.
The 35-city tour will touch down at many of the world’s most iconic arenas throughout North America, Europe, Australia and Asia. Kicking off October 6th at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena, the tour stops include New York’s Madison Square Garden, Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, San Francisco’s Chase Center and more, before heading overseas to Europe in December, Australia/New Zealand in February, and Asia in February and March.
Artist presale begins Tuesday, July 23rd at 10AM local time, with various presales running throughout the week ahead of public on sale on Friday, July 26th at 10AM local time.
The world tour announcement comes on the heels of keshi’s latest release, “Say,” and the announcement of his anxiously awaited new full-length record, Requiem, which will be released on September 13th via Island Records. “Say,” the album’s first single and video, introduces the sonically grand world keshi is building on Requiem. It has become keshi’s fastest streamed record, reaching 1M plus listens on Spotify alone within the first day.
In recent years, keshi has become a streaming force, racking up over 11 billion streams across his trilogy of EPs and debut album, Gabriel, which was released in 2022. The strength of his catalog has given keshi the opportunity to tour the world repeatedly, selling out shows globally and continually elevating his live productions and performance. Raising the bar yet again after last year’s two sold out shows at both Radio City Music Hall in New York and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, keshi manifested the soundtrack for the packed stadium stages that he’ll grace later this year and beyond.
