After dealing with the creative struggles that came in the wake of her 2012 breakout album Visions, Grimes told Dazed that her follow-up effort will be released next month. She also said that her new record is “more political and less abstract than before,” saying the lyrics will be “Like, really trippy free association about nature and shit. There’s a song that’s from the perspective of a butterfly in the Amazon as people are cutting down trees.”
In support of her as-yet untitled forthcoming album, the well-known Dolly Parton fan announced the “Rhinestone Cowgirls” tour, kicking off at the end of October with a performance at the Beach Goth Festival in Santa Ana, California.
Tickets go on sale this week, and you can snag them at Grimes’ website. Check out the full list of tour dates below.
