Esperanza Spalding announces '12 Little Spells' tour, shares 10th track
As mentioned, Esperanza Spalding is in the midst of releasing a new song a day at 12:12 PM for 12 days, and the end result will be her new album 12 Little Spells which hits stores and streaming services this Friday (10/19). (Another theme of the album is that each song has a corresponding body part.) So far, the ones she released have all been really promising doses of experimental pop, and the tenth one comes out at 12:12 today. The embed for the new one is below and the song will be streamable at 12:12. UPDATE: Song ten out now — listen to all ten below.
Esperanza has now also announced the 12-date 12 Little Spells tour going down in November and December. It kicks off on the West Coast and then ends in NYC on December 12 at Town Hall. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (10/19) at 10 AM with various presales starting Wednesday (10/17) at 10 AM. All dates are listed below.
