Tori Amos releases her Epic Records debut in late October, and follows it up with a North American tour that kicks off in early November.
Amos, who sings and plays the piano, will be backed by longtime collaborators Jon Evans (bass) and Matt Chamberlain (drums), according to Epic. Singer-songwriter Howie Day will open.
“Scarlet’s Walk,” Amos’ latest album, hits stores on Oct. 29. The record is her first for Epic, with whom she signed after leaving Atlantic Records last year. Her new label describes “Scarlet’s Walk” as “a sonic novel” featuring a main character named Scarlet, “a woman who crisscrosses the country in search of answers, in search of herself.”
Amos self-produced the album, and recorded it in the same Cornwall, England studio where she recorded several of her previous albums.
The record features the single, “A Sorta Fairytale,” which recently surfaced on radio. The track is streaming at Amos’ official website.
