From the organizer

Tori Amos today announces her forthcoming new studio album In Times of Dragons, which will be released in spring 2026 alongside an extensive European tour. Since her debut album Little Earthquakes in 1992, the North Carolina-born singer, pianist and songwriter has over the years created a body of work defined by fearless storytelling and a singular musical voice. In Times of Dragons, Amos’ 18th album, continues this tradition, presenting a powerful journey of resilience and awakening where the pursuit of freedom meets forces that seek to control and silence. "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.”
— Radio Milwaukee's 88NINE
