In a recent press release, GRAMMY-nominated multi-million selling singer-songwriter Dido announced her first tour in 15 years where she will play songs from her new album Still On My Mind alongside her classic megahits such as “Thank You,” “Here With Me,” “White Flag,” and “Life For Rent.” The World tour of 27 dates commences in Europe on May 5th in Prague, ending with London’s Roundhouse on May 30th. The North America leg of the tour follows immediately in June.

Press Release:

Still On My Mind is Dido’s 5th studio album and was written and recorded in England, a result of the fruitful and incredibly natural production/songwriting partnership with her long term collaborator and brother (Faithless founder) Rollo. “It was simple, I only wanted to make another album if it was with him,” says Dido. “It was made in such an easy way, all the vocals recorded on the sofa, a lot of it recorded at home.” It follows the 2013 release of the acclaimed Girl Who Got Away.

Still On My Mind encapsulates a variety of styles and genres, ranging from her love of hip hop to her folk roots, but ultimately the entire record carries a dance and electronic music sensibility, even on the tracks with no beats. At the core, it’s about the songs which capture the beautiful essence of Dido personally and emotionally.

The first taste of the album is the glorious ‘Hurricanes.’ From the first few notes of this powerful track, Dido’s voice has never sounded bigger and better, making you realize how much we’ve missed that sound. ‘Hurricanes’ is available to download/stream today here. It is also available as a free download with the pre-order of the album, available now.

Dido describes the making of this album as “an absolutely magical experience.” She says, “I wanted to capture the feeling I still get from listening to music, just that rush like you don’t need anything more than this.”

With sales of more than 40 million albums worldwide, Dido is one of the best-selling UK artists ever. Both No Angel and its 2003 follow-up, Life For Rent, still rank among the UK’s biggest-selling albums of all-time.
