Vega will be joined on stage by her longtime collaborator and guitarist Gerry Leonard, along with cellist Stephanie Winters.
Suzanne Vega has added a run of West Coast dates to her Flying With Angels Tour. Making stops at Los Angeles’ storied Largo, San Francisco’s Bimbo’s 365 Club, the Aladdin in Portland, Seattle’s Neptune and more, Vega will be joined on stage by her longtime collaborator and guitarist Gerry Leonard (David Bowie, Rufus Wainwright, Laurie Anderson, Duncan Sheik), along with cellist Stephanie Winters. Tickets for all upcoming shows are available for purchase here.
Vega is touring in support of her critically acclaimed new record Flying With Angels, out now on Cooking Vinyl. Produced by Gerry Leonard, Flying With Angels is Vega’s first full-length album of all new music in over a decade. The record is available to stream below.
Vega emerged as a leading figure of the folk-music revival of the early 1980s. Since the release of her self-titled, critically acclaimed 1985 debut album, she has written and recorded numerous songs that have become part of the contemporary music vernacular, including “Luka,” “Marlene on the Wall” and “Tom’s Diner,” an a cappella piece that was remixed by U.K. electronic dance duo DNA and became a major club hit. It remains an oft-sampled and covered standard by artists across the musical spectrum. Her albums, including her self-titled debut, follow-up Solitude Standing and 99.9F have sold millions of copies worldwide.
