Over the past few years, she\u2019s evolved from bedroom pop to a more experimental, alternative sound, connecting with new audiences to draw them into her work. Now, she\u2019s on the cusp of her world tour, kicking off Oct. 1 in Connecticut before taking her performance through major U.S. cities and beyond. The indie-rock and alternative sensation will start her U.K. and European leg Nov. 14 in Glasgow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For fans who have yet to give \u201cPylon\u201d a listen, the album revisits some of Beabadoobee\u2019s earlier roots, featuring collaborators such as Hayley Williams and Brendan Yates. Released Sept. 18, the tour is in support of the 14-track record, which has already received strong fan engagement and support. With each listen, Beabadoobee\u2019s fourth studio album delivers a fuller, captivating experience, showcasing how far she\u2019s evolved as an artist from polished pop to a louder, heavier, more intense sound.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opening the Boston stop is Wisp, the San Francisco-based shoegaze artist who has quickly emerged as a compelling new voice in the industry. With the release of her 2023 debut single \u201cYour Face,\u201d the singer, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist has built a following on her hazy, distorted guitar. Her 2025 debut album \u201cIf Not Winter\u201d marks Wisp\u2019s reputation as a leader in a genre-bending shoegaze vibe. As she joins Beabadoobee\u2019s Powerlines Tour, this artist is sure to reach and connect with new audiences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an amazing setlist, this tour is shaping up to be a defining moment in Beabadoobee\u2019s career, spanning countries.
