The In Holy Flux Tour was the second headlining concert tour by American singer-songwriter and musician Weyes Blood, in support of her fifth studio album, And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow (2022). She also debuted songs from Titanic Rising (2019). The tour consisted of four legs throughout North America, Europe, and Oceania; it started on December 8, 2022, in Los Angeles, United States, and concluded on November 14, 2023, in Nottingham.
Background
[edit]Weyes Blood's fifth studio album, titled And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow, was announced on social media on September 12, 2022; in parallel, she released its lead single, "It's Not Just Me, It's Everybody", and also announced that she would embark on her second concert tour, In Holy Flux Tour.[1] She revealed the tour dates, locations, and venues for 29 shows in North America and 14 shows in Europe.[2][3] On January 26, 2023, the artist confirmed that American singer Sam Burton would be the special guest for the European leg.[4]
On March 6, 2023, Weyes Blood announced the third and fourth leg of the concert tour, subtitled "Unleashed" and "the Resurrection", respectively.[5] In selected dates of the former, she was an opening act for American musician Beck and French band Phoenix, as part of their co-headlining Summer Odyssey Tour.[6] In April 2023, she announced the "New Dawn" leg of the In Holy Flux Tour, which would be embarking in New Zealand and Australia.[7] Jack Ladder, Lost Animal, and Nicholas Allbrook served as opening acts.[8][9] A visual collage directed by photographer Neelam Khan Vela with scenes of the tour was released as the music video for the track "Hearts Aglow" on August 9, 2023.[10]
