Tori Amos has announced her forthcoming new studio album In Times of Dragons, which will be released on Universal’s recently relaunched Fontana label on April 10 2026. Speaking about the album, Amos explains: ‘In Times of Dragons is a metaphorical story about the fight for Democracy over Tyranny, reflecting the current abhorrent non accidental burning down of democracy in real time by the ‘Dictator believing Lizard Demons’ in their usurpation of America.’
Additionally she has announced an extensive European tour, her biggest for a decade. This will span 17 countries across April and May 2026. The live shows will see Amos joined once again by longtime collaborators Jon Evans (MD and bass) and Ash Soan (drums) plus the addition of three backing singers – Liv Gibson, Deni Hlavinka and Hadley Kennary – to perform songs from In Times of Dragons alongside highlights from across her illustrious 35-year career, which has seen eight Grammy nominations and over 12 million global album sales.
