Greentea Peng has just announced dates for her UK tour in spring of 2022. The singer made the announcement on Instagram, and she will make stops in cities like Birmingham, London, and more. The South East Londoner will also have her band, the Seng Seng Family, accompany her.
The tour will be called the MAN MADE tour, hot on the heels of her debut album of the same name that will be released on 4 June of this year. The 26-year-old shared that those who pre-saved the upcoming album before 4pm BST today (26 May) will have access to presale tickets for the tour that will go on sale 9am tomorrow (27 May). She has been building up continuous momentum for the anticipated album, as she has now released three singles from the album. She previously released singles ‘Nah It Ain’t the Same’ in February, ‘Kali V2′ in April, and most recently ‘Dangling’ this month. The psychedelic R&B artist takes the time to plan each lyric and each song. She has clearly chosen the tour and singles with intent, as she shares in an interview with Paste magazine, “If I thought of making an album, I’m thinking about The Fugees’ The Score or The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. I never wanted to put out half-hearted projects with an accumulation of random songs.”
Greentea Peng, known as Aria Wells when not performing, became more well-known after appearing on a COLORS show back in 2019. A quick turnaround, she had only decided to fully pursue music in 2018, saying, “For a few years, I was very insular. Singing was not a part of the identity I had created for myself. I fell out of love with singing. But I fell back into music while living on the beach in Mexico and I was mad, because why did I stop doing this? It’s the only thing I enjoy properly.”
As you wait to listen to the result of her enjoyment in the album, you can still purchase tickets for the tour. The MAN MADE tour will begin at Concorde 2 in Brighton on 17 March, and conclude at the Marble Factory in Bristol on 2 April.
