The Japanese House Announces U.S. Fall Tour

Ahead of the release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, In The End It Always Does (out June 30 on Dirty Hit), The Japanese House (the acclaimed project of Amber Bain) has announced her first U.S. tour in four years.

The series of fall dates kicks off November 1 in Philadelphia and will make stops in New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Nashville, Austin, San Francisco, Denver, Portland, Chicago, Boston, and more (full routing below)! Tickets are on sale this Friday at 10am local time HERE. Fan pre-sale begins tomorrow, PRESS HERE to sign up. For all show/ticketing details please visit thejapanesehouse.co.uk, and pre-save the new album HERE.

The tour announcement follows the release of the artist’s buzzy new single “Sunshine Baby” which features vocals from The 1975’s Matty Healy. Showcasing Bain’s nuanced understanding of human emotions, the track balances feelings of nostalgia and acceptance once a relationship has run its course. 

It perfectly encapsulates the album’s cyclical nature, with Matty vocals echoing Amber’s as the track slowly brings you back to reality. Other singles include upbeat summer anthem for the brokenhearted, “Sad To Breathe,” and “Boyhood” which sees her explore the complexities of gender and sexuality as well as how trauma becomes an inescapable part of a person.

The songs on In The End It Always Does highlight heartbreak and love lost, emotional reflections on childhood trauma and identity – all woven into a tapestry of gorgeous, elevated pop music. This album finds The Japanese House leaning even further into the pop realm with help from Matty Healy and George Daniel (The 1975), Katie Gavin (MUNA) and Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon among others.

She credits Katie Gavin especially with injecting her with creative energy and inspiration throughout. The album was produced and engineered by Chloe Kraemer (Rex Orange County, Lava La Rue, Glass Animals), an experience Bain describes as “life changing” due to the unspoken, shared understanding between marginalised genders in a creative space.
