Singer and producer Syd mounts a 23-date North American tour opening November 7 at Vancouver's Commodore Ballroom in support of her 12-track third solo album Beard, by Free Lunch and Warner Records. The transatlantic trek follows an autumn European circuit through London and Copenhagen, redirecting Bennett's live sets into mid-sized rooms and historic ballrooms before wrapping December 16 at Los Angeles' Wiltern.
Bennett recorded the 41-minute LP after producing ten selections herself, tracking arrangements inside Raphael Saadiq's North Hollywood studio. The audio trades the synthesizer thickness of 2022 album Broken Hearts Club for acoustic guitar strums, bossa nova rhythms, and dry basslines. Guest features pair Bennett with vocalist Blu June on "Callin," Jordan Ward on "Always Be Mine," Big Sean on single "GMFU," and James Fauntleroy on "Any Time," with additional production credits from Rodney Jerkins.
Stage dates begin in the Pacific Northwest before shifting south for two appearances at Tyler, the Creator's Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival at Dodger Stadium on November 14 and November 15. Box office access opens to the general public September 18 at 10:00 AM local time, preceded by presale allocations starting September 16.
