The six-show run kicks off on January 24th
Critically acclaimed guitarist and singer Orianthi will embark on a UK tour in January 2026. The run kicks off January 24th in Manchester with stops in Glasgow, Leeds, London, and South Wales, before wrapping in Southampton on February 1st.
Presales are underway ahead of the general sale on Friday, July 4th, at 10 am local time.
The Australian native’s new album, Some Kind of Feeling, was released digitally by Woodward Avenue Records last week. The CD will be released on August 15th, followed by the vinyl on September 19th.
Orianthi produced three songs from the new album, including “First Time Blues” featuring blues legend Joe Bonamassa, “Ghost,” and “Bad For Each Other.” The remaining seven songs on the album, including the current single “Attention,” are produced by Kevin Shirley (Black Country Communion, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Beth Hart, Joe Bonamassa).
Though the lyrics of Orianthi’s latest fiery, kick-ass single “Attention,” exposes an annoying ex-lover’s habit of drunk texting to rile up her cooled passions, its title, on a deeper level makes us think about the kind of attention we’ve been paying to the singer/songwriter and virtuoso electric guitarist over the past 20 years.
Seems nothing can ever be written about the multi-talented veteran artist without mentioning her collaborations with Alice Cooper, Dave Stewart, and Richie Sambora, and the fact that Michael Jackson hired her for his London performances the year of his untimely death.
