Maggie Rogers has announced two intimate London shows this fall as part of her ‘Don’t Forget Me’ Tour.
The Maryland singer-songwriter is set to perform at Hackney Empire on September 4 and 5. Tickets go on general sale at 10am BST on April 5. The tour takes its name from her third studio album, Don’t Forget Me, which is set for release on April 12 via Capitol Records. Rogers previously teased the record with the title track and the single “So Sick Of Dreaming.”
The artist co-produced Don’t Forget Me with Ian Fitchuk (Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris) at Electric Lady Studios in New York City, writing eight of its 10 songs with him and penning two alone. Shawn Everett (Brittany Howard, The War on Drugs) took charge of mixing. The album was mastered by Emily Lazar (Beck, Coldplay), who has mastered all of Rogers’ albums to date.
“I wanted to make an album that sounded like a Sunday afternoon,” Rogers explained in advance PR. “Worn in denim. A drive in your favorite car. No makeup, but the right amount of lipstick. Something classic. The mohair throw and bottle of whiskey in Joan Didion’s motel room. An old corvette. Vintage, but not overly Americana. I wanted to make an album to belt at full volume alone in your car, a trusted friend who could ride shotgun and be there when you needed her.”
Rogers debuted “So Sick Of Dreaming” along with upcoming album tracks “Don’t Forget Me” and “The Kill,” during her sold-out Summer of 23 North American headline tour, which included stops at legendary venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, Forest Hills Stadium in NYC, and the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
Consequence recently hailed Maggie Rogers as “an enchanting and charismatic performer, a firecracker” and noted, “Her songs have a special kind of ferocity and grandeur that is best felt amidst a crowd.”
In 2024, Rogers will hit the road in May for a North American tour, which includes an appearance at Bonnaroo music and arts festival in Manchester, Tennessee in June. She’ll also support Coldplay at stadium shows in Germany, Austria and Ireland in August and September.
