Ethel Cain has announced extra UK and European dates for her upcoming ‘Willoughby Tucker Forever’ tour – see the full list below.
The singer released her latest record ‘Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You’ in August, an album she has said will “close the chapter” of the ‘Ethel Cain’ character in her career.
She is preparing to embark on a sold-out tour to support the album this week, with the first show going down in Manchester’s O2 Apollo on Thursday (October 2). Cain also plays in Glasgow and has five headline shows at London’s Eventim Apollo, before she heads around the continent in the coming weeks.
Now, she has announced a new set of shows for next summer, kicking off in Luxembourg City on June 13. She will play Cardiff Castle, Halifax’s Piece Hall, Birmingham’s O2 Academy, Dublin’s Fairview Park and Edinburgh’s Usher Hall later that month.
Pre-sales for tickets begin at 10am on Wednesday (October 1) with a general sale to follow at the same time on Friday (October 3). You will be able to find yours here.

In July, a slew of past controversial social media posts from the singer’s past resurfaced. She went on to admit to having sent the posts and apologised for some of the “shameful” content. She also said that the people resurfacing the content are not seeking justice, but looking to “destroy” her.
She was also the subject of controversy earlier this year when she shared the hashtag #KillMoreCEOs after the high-profile murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York in December.
NME awarded ‘Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You’ five stars, writing: “On the closing track ‘Waco, Texas’, Ethel accepts a life of nothingness, though she still anticipates the tiniest possibility that Willoughby could ever return to her. It’s a seemingly hopeless conclusion, but the raison d’être of this album isn’t nihilism – it’s the pure, devotional love that Hayden Anhedönia holds for her protagonist, even through her suffering. If this truly is the end of her story, it’s hard to imagine a more heartfelt way to lay Ethel Cain to rest.”
