Joy Oladokun Confirms First Nationwide Headline Tour Kicking Off Next Spring

October 12, 2021/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Joy Oladokun

Joy Oladokun is heading out on her first ever headlining tour next spring with support from Bre Kennedy.

The new tour includes newly confirmed shows at Austin’s Antone’s, Dallas’ Club Dada, Los Angeles’ Troubadour, Denver’s Marquis Theater, Chicago’s Lincoln Hall, New York’s Bowery Ballroom, Atlanta’s Terminal West and Nashville’s The Basement East, among several others. Tickets for the tour go on sale this Friday, Oct. 15 at 10 a.m. local time.

The tour adds to a landmark year for Oladokun, who released her major label debut, In Defense Of My Own Happiness, this past summer via Amigo Records/Verve Forecast/Republic Records. She recently released a deluxe edition of the project, In Defense Of My Own Happiness (Complete), which includes all 14 tracks from her debut, ten additional songs from her self-released 2020 record and one new track, “Judas.”

She has been named a Billboard LGBTQ Artist of the Month, Spotify’s Radar US: Artists to Watch 2021 and Amazon Music’s Artists to Watch 2021, and had her music featured on CBS’ CSI: Vegas, NBC’s This Is Us, ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, ABC’s Station 19 and NBC’s America’s Got Talent. She will make her debut on PBS’ Austin City Limits early next year as part of the legendary program’s 47th season.
