Brandi Carlile postpones UK and European tour

Brandi Carlile Postpones European Tour Amid Personal Circumstances

Singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile has announced a significant change for her upcoming international dates, postponing the UK and European leg of her tour. The decision comes after Carlile cited personal circumstances as the reason for the shift, seeking to give herself time away from the demands of travel and performance.

The extensive run, which was originally set to kick off in October, has been pushed back significantly, now slated to begin in March 2027. While Carlile kept the specific details private, she acknowledged that this change might be inconvenient for many fans planning international travel.

Despite the postponement of these major dates, the excitement surrounding her music remains undiminished. The news primarily affects her upcoming schedule across Europe and the United Kingdom, while her journey continues uninterrupted in the United States. The U.S. leg of the tour is still firmly on track, set to begin next week in Maine, providing fans with a continued opportunity to experience her artistry.

The scheduling adjustment impacts specific locations, with the planned Lisbon show being canceled outright. However, Carlile has worked to ensure that fans are not left out of the loop regarding future opportunities. Two new dates have been added in Wolverhampton, England, and Copenhagen, offering new avenues for her music to reach audiences.

For ticket holders affected by the changes, arrangements have been made to ensure fairness. Fans who had tickets for Lisbon will receive full refunds. Similarly, those with tickets for the rescheduled English shows will be offered full refunds along with priority presale access to the new dates in Wolverhampton and Copenhagen.

Brandi Carlile’s artistry is built on a foundation of incredible achievement. She has established herself as one of the most decorated artists in Americana over the last decade, consistently earning critical acclaim and recognition for her emotional depth and powerful songwriting.

Her impact spans multiple awards; her 2018 breakthrough album By the Way, I Forgive You secured six Grammy nominations, including wins for Album, Record, and Song of the Year. Her subsequent work, including the follow-up In These Silent Days, further solidified her status. This album debuted at No. 1 on several major charts and demonstrated an extraordinary ability to connect with listeners.

Beyond her solo success, Carlile is a celebrated collaborator, known for working alongside titans of music such as Joni Mitchell and Elton John. Furthermore, she co-founded the country supergroup the Highwomen, whose 2019 debut topped Billboard’s country albums chart, showcasing her versatility and ability to build powerful musical communities.
