Northern Ireland-born, Emmy Award-winning singer-songwriter Foy Vance has announced The Wake World Tour. The 60-date tour – in celebration of Vance’s March 13 album, The Wake – will kick off in Zurich, Switzerland, on Sept. 3rd and wrap in Boston, MA, on May 1st, 2027.
The world tour will start in Europe and the UK with stops including Berlin, Paris, Copenhagen, Edinburgh, London (two nights) and Dublin. The US portion includes Los Angeles (two nights), Denver, Nashville, Chicago, Washington D.C. and New York City.

Out March 13 via Rounder Records, The Wake marks the completion of a 26-year grief journey, which led Vance to create a series of seven albums following the passing of his father in 1999. Produced by Ethan Johns, the 13-track album is described as a "convergence of folk, soul, and Southern blues."
The Wake World Tour will follow a series of special record store performances and intimate, sold-out album release shows in March. Plus, he’ll play a hometown show, A Celebration of Life with Foy Vance, at Custom House Square in Belfast in August.
Vance's discography includes albums like Joy of Nothing, From Muscle Shoals, Signs of Life, and To Memphis.
