Poppy concert chronology

The Poppy.Computer Tour[1] was the debut concert tour by American singer Poppy. The tour supports the singer's debut studio album, Poppy.Computer (2017).[2] Starting in the fall of 2017, the tour played 38 cities, including 40 concerts in North America, one London concert in December, and three shows in Japan in early 2018.

Background

[edit]

Poppy announced plans of touring via Twitter, alongside her album announcement, on May 6, 2017.[3] In late July, the concert schedule was released, showing 15 shows in the United States and Canada.[4] This was followed with a 21-minute video posted on YouTube, where the singer stands in front of different backgrounds with two background artists.[5] High demand added additional shows in Los Angeles and Chicago. The tour played in small venues and clubs, with a capacity of 400 or less. The setlist features nine tracks from the album and one from her 2016 EP. The show resembles Poppy's videos, featuring appearances from Titanic Sinclair and Charlotte the Mannequin.

A single show occurred in London on December 13, 2017, another in Tokyo on January 13, 2018, and a third in Mexico City on April 27, 2018.[6] In March 2018, Poppy performed two more shows in Japan as part of the Popspring festival.[7]
