Emma Ruth Rundle announces full-band fall tour

Emma Ruth Rundle is back, bringing a powerful dose of existential reflection and raw energy with her sixth album, These Killing Times, set for release in September. This latest offering is bolstered by the striking single “Enough,” a track that doesn’t just demand attention but forces listeners to confront some of the biggest questions about power and belonging.

“Enough” serves as a profound meditation on societal structures and the distribution of wealth, drawing inspiration from the classic narrative of “Man Who Sold The World.” Rundle uses this framework to pose sharp inquiries: is the current world sufficient? The song envisions a reckoning where vengeance is unleashed, imagining figures like an Elon Musk type figure being swept away into an angry sky. It’s a visceral vision reflecting the anxieties of our time and offering a glimpse into the dispensation of the billionaire class, ultimately asserting the core philosophy that the world belongs to all beings.

To bring this complex vision to life, Rundle has teamed up with formidable musical minds. The soundscape of “Enough” is anchored by Jess Gowrie (Chelsea Wolfe) on drums and Patrick Shiroishi providing haunting saxophone textures, weaving a tapestry that is both aggressive and deeply soulful. This collaboration ensures the album carries the weight of its philosophical themes with undeniable sonic intensity.

Following the release of the album, Rundle is embarking on an ambitious full band tour designed to connect with audiences on a grand scale. The tour follows her recent solo dates supporting All Them Witches, and it promises to be an immersive experience built around powerful live performances.

The journey will feature an opening act by Cinder Well, setting the stage for Rundle’s full band to take center stage. Fans can catch this journey across the country, with dates ranging from Chattanooga, TN, through various stops including Charlotte, NC, and Boston, MA, before concluding in Denver, CO.

The schedule spans October through December 2026, featuring performances at iconic venues such as The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ, the Empire Live in Albany, NY, and the historic Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn. Tickets go on sale Friday, July 24 at 10 AM local time, with an artist presale starting today at 12 PM local using the code FALL2026.

The tour itinerary includes stops like Indianapolis, IN, Grand Rapids, MI, and Los Angeles, CA, providing a full panorama of Rundle’s vision as she continues to explore the boundaries between sound, philosophy, and the human condition.
