Big Freedia announces “Azz Across America” 2019 tour

The post Big Freedia announces “Azz Across America” 2019 tour appeared first on Consequence of Sound.

Queer icon Big Freedia has announced the “Azz Across America” tour for later this fall. The trek will see the Southern hip-hop star cut across the US with opener Low Cut Connie. Best of all, the entire thing is presented by Ben & Jerry’s, which is extremely promising for any fans with a sweet tooth.

The run will wed New Orleans bounce with South Philadelphia rock for what Freedia warns will be “some wild sh*t.” She added in a press release, “We are going to shake our asses off.”

It’s somewhat brief — kicking off in Atlanta, Georgia on October 24th and wrapping up November 21st in Solana Beach, California — but stacked all the same given the pairing. Tickets go on sale this Friday, August 9th, and you can look for tickets to all of Big Freedia’s upcoming shows here.

“Freedia is an inspiring performer and I cant wait to share the stage with him and make some beautiful stuff happen. Asses will be shook and hearts will be melted. These will be wild, uplifting shows for all the boys and girls,” Adam Weiner of Low Cut Connie said in a press release. “These are intense times in the USA. Me and Freedia wanna bring together all kinds of people, shake them up and uplift them. Feeling joy together is an audacious response to chaos and disharmony.”
