Tori Amos Adds Second London Date to November Tour

Singer-songwriter Tori Amos will release her 12th album ‘Night of Hunters’ on 26th September, followed by a European tour throughout October and into November, when the solo artist will play six dates in the UK and Ireland. Amos has now added a second date in London, after her previously-announced show in the capital’s Royal Albert Hall sold out. She will now perform a second night in London at the Hammersmith HMV Apollo on Thursday 3rd November before playing in Manchester the following evening – see below for all dates and tickets.

‘Night of Hunters’ is Tori Amos’s first album since 2009, when she released both ‘Abnormally Attracted to Sin’ and ‘Midwinter Graces’ during the same year. The former reached Number 20 in the UK Albums Chart – the singer’s highest chart position since 2001’s ‘Strange Little Girls’.

Speaking about ‘Night of Hunters’, Amos said: “I have used the structure of a classical song cycle to tell an ongoing, modern story. The protagonist is a woman who finds herself in the dying embers of a relationship. In the course of one night she goes through an initiation of sorts that leads her to reinvent herself, allowing the listener to follow her on a journey to explore complex musical and emotional subject matter. One of the main themes explored on this album is the hunter and the hunted and how both exist within us.”

Tori Amos has frequently been praised for her entertaining live performances, most notably in 2003, when Rolling Stone placed her at Number Five in their poll of the top live acts of all time. She experienced the peak of her commercial success during the mid-90s, when her second album ‘Under the Pink’ reached Number One in the UK Albums Chart and Armand Van Helden’s remix of her song ‘Professional Widow’ topped the singles chart.
