Last week, acclaimed American singer-songwriter Ethel Cain brought her much anticipated Willoughby Tucker Forever Tour to the UK with two sold out nights at Manchester’s O2 Apollo. The tour, which see’s Cain performing her biggest European dates yet, follows the hugely successful US leg which began back in August.

The tour comes after the release of the artist’s second album Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You, which reached no.12 on the Official UK Album Chart on its 8^th August release. Performing the album in full, Cain lifted the tracks to another dimension for the stage, giving fans on the night a unique and immersive experience of the album’s mystifying narrative. Ending with a three track encore of some of Cain’s most beloved tracks: ‘A House in Nebraska’, ‘Crush’ and ‘American Teenager’, night two of the Willoughby Tucker Forever UK Tour was a testament to the artist’s growing cult appeal.

Tonight (Monday 6^th October) Ethel Cain commences a 5 night residency at London’s Eventim Apollo before moving on to her upcoming Europe dates, returning to UK in June 2026. Full list of upcoming dates, including very limited tickets for London dates this week, can be found on Ethel Cain’s official website.
