Avril Lavigne is ready to stage a big comeback. The pop-rock singer has announced dates for her upcoming Head Above Water Tour, her first headlining tour in five years.
Lavigne will launch the trek September 14 in Seattle and remain on the road for a month before wrapping in Philadelphia on October 11. She’ll visit thirteen additional markets in between, including notable stops in Detroit, New York, Los Angeles and Minneapolis. Lavigne will also perform a lone gig in her native Canada when the tour rolls through Toronto on October 6, though it’s unclear if she’ll add more shows throughout Canada.
The tour comes in support of Lavigne’s sixth studio album Head Above Water. The LP – which dropped earlier this year – propelled the 34-year-old back onto music charts with singles “Tell Me It’s Over,” “I Fell in Love With the Devil,” Nicki Minaj collaboration “Dumb Blonde” and the album’s title track.
Lavigne’s return to the studio was a long time coming. She released her self-titled fifth record in 2013 and continued her reign as the Princess of Punk with singles “Here’s to Never Growing Up,” “Rock n Roll” and “Let Me Go,” a duet featuring her ex-husband, Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger. She supported that effort in a massive world tour that hit nearly 80 cities across three continents.
Throughout her nearly two-decade career, Avril Lavigne has climbed the ranks to become the third-best-selling Canadian female artist, trailing only Celine Dion and Shania Twain. She has notched fifteen Top 40 hits in the U.S. and Canada, including No. 1 smash singles “Complicated” and “Girlfriend.”
