​Perfume Genius Hints at New Album, Announces North American Tour

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Feb 14, 2017

Perfume Genius is teasing the follow-up to 2014's Too Bright with his return to the live stage this spring and summer.
 
He recently revealed via Twitter that his next album is nearly ready, and Matador Records has confirmed that an announcement about the new record is coming soon.
 

Ahead of any official album news, though, the musician born Mike Hadreas is taking his Perfume Genius project back out on the road for a slew of North American dates.
 
Following a previously announced date in Marfa, TX, with Weyes Blood, Perfume Genius will kick off his headlining shows in Detroit on May 10, followed by Canadian shows in Toronto on May 11 and Montreal on May 12. A second leg of the tour will bring him to Vancouver on July 15. Tickets go on sale this Friday (February 17).
 
See the full list of shows below, and stay tuned for what sounds like it could be an album announcement in the near future.
