-- Tori Amos is set to release her brand new studio album, Unrepentant Geraldines, May 13th in the U.S. on Mercury Classics/Universal Music Classics.
Unrepentant Geraldines is pop/rock in both content and feel and
is a change in pace from Amos’ most recent releases. The album is both
one step further in the evolution of one of the most successful and
influential artists of her generation, and a return
to the inspiring and personal music that Amos is known for all around
the world.

Tori
Amos’ worldwide tour kicks off in May, with U.S. dates now announced
for July and August (see attached). Fans will have exclusive access to a
ticket pre-sale before the general public on-sale
dates by pre-ordering Unrepentant Geraldines on-line. Once a pre-order for the album is placed through
http://myplaydirect.com/tori-amos ,
individuals will later receive a code to grant them access to pre-sales tickets for the U.S. show of their choice.
Unrepentant Geraldines
is her
14th studio recording, and a return to her core identity as a creator of contemporary songs, following a series of more classically-inspired
and innovative musical projects of the last four years. These have included the seasonal collection
Midwinter Graces, the classically influenced Night of Hunters, and Gold Dust, a collection of orchestral re-workings of songs from across her career. Released in October 2012
Gold Dust included “Flavor,” which was remixed by the late DJ Peter Rauhofer and peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Club Dance Chart in February 2013.
Amos recently also launched her most ambitious project to date as a composer, along with
book writer Samuel Adamson, with the musical The Light Princes, which
premiered at London's National Theatre in fall of 2013.
Tori Amos has sold over 12 million albums, has played over a thousand shows and has won
numerous awards. Since the release of her debut album Little Earthquakes 21
years ago in 1992 where she pushed boundaries with her confessional
style of songwriting, Amos continues to be adored, picking up new fans
along the way, romanced by her messages
of empowerment, tenderness, acerbic assertiveness, and of course her
utterly peerless sound.
A
pioneer across multiple platforms, Tori Amos was the first major label
artist to offer a single for download.
She has had her songs turned into graphic novels and has produced
groundbreaking videos throughout her career. Ms. Amos is also a noted
humanitarian and co-founder of RAINN (Rape, Abuse, and Incest National
Network), which is the United States’ largest anti-sexual
assault organization.
