Norah Jones Prepares for Spring Tour

Norah Jones will become reacquainted with the road this spring as she embarks on a 36-city tour that will begin in Tulsa, Oklahoma on March 5 and carry her to Atlanta, Georgia on May 15. The tour is in support of her recent album release “The Fall” which hit shelves on November 17. The tour will focus on more intimate theater venues that compliment Jones’ laid back vibe. Tickets for select dates go onsale Friday (12/4) and Norah Jones mailing list is holding a presale today (12/1) at 4pm via Artist Arena. Full Norah Jones tour dates are listed below.

Norah’s latest release “The Fall” seems to shrug off her jazz-pop mantle to instead lean in a more rock driven direction. Jacquire King (Kings of Leon, Modest Mouse, Tom Waits) stepped up to handle production duties on the new album, and Jones flipped through her Rolodex to enlist songwriting help from Ryan Adams, Will Sheff (Okkervil River) and longtime partner Jesse Smith. The album can be ordered in CD or Vinyl from NorahJones.com or downloaded at iTunes.

For those of you who can’t wait until Jones makes the rounds to your town, be sure to catch her upcoming television performances as she supports “The Fall.” She will be on the Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien on December 15 as well as Jimmy Kimmel on December 16.
