Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook pages since we often post quickie updates there when we're on-the-go.
During tours, we do our best to cover setlists in real-time on Twitter. If you want to tweet a show in, just DM or @ us on the day and tell us to watch your stream that night.
Tori is touring in 2017 to support the release of Native Invader. The European legs runs from early September through early October and the North American leg runs from late October to early December. We do not know if additional dates elsewhere will be added.
Be sure to check out our other sections, Tour — where setlists and other concert-related material will be updated daily while Tori is on tour — and You. Lots of interesting stuff!
Well, if you’re a mother, there’s nothing repulsive about it. If you are a nurturing mother, and a good one, you can go to play groups, sit on the floor and play all the games, and have tea with the other mothers, but wouldn’t you like to think that’s not all there is? That you haven’t hung up your high heels without knowing how to walk in them? I’m really quite happy to say that in my early 40s, I wake up feeling sexy, and I can’t say I felt that way in my late 20s.
Toni tipped us off to a quick interview in New York Magazine with Tori called Reclaiming the M Word. Check it out.
Kendra and Jes wrote in to tell us that the May 3-17, 2007, issue of Rolling Stone (issue 1025/1026, its 40th Anniversary issue) lists “Yo George” among “Ten New Anti-Bush Tracks.” The track made number 4 on the list, and the article cites this quote from the Yo-Georgester herself: “Something in me refused to stand by anymore and watch the war continue without doing anything about it.”
There are many sides to the women I know that are much more complex. Their boyfriends look at them thinking they know (them), and I’m sitting there thinking, if I were a guy I’d be stealing her from you.
This short interview appeared in today’s edition of The Toronto Star. Thanks to Jenn for letting us know!
“There are reasons I’m not in a hotel room somewhere with a needle in my arm. I don’t allow strangers exposure to the side that rips your skin off and sings the music.”
Paul Dalgarno interviewed Tori for Scotland’s Sunday Herald. Thanks to Jason for letting us know.
Christian Taylor, an editor for SameSame, got the opportunity to talk Tori for their site and has posted an article about the interview. Thanks for sending in the link, Christian — sounds like you had an excellent discussion! SameSame has also posted an audio clip from the interview as well as their review of American Doll Posse.
“I’ve never been America’s sweetheart or the church’s sweetheart. That’s OK. I’ve never said I was the sweet drink at the wedding – I think I’m more of a dirty martini.” — Tori Amos
Here’s a recent article from the New York Post in which Tori very quickly touches on the creation of “Big Wheel” and the meaning behind the Bible/shame photo. Thanks to lucy, franco, Speedbliss, and Jay.
(You can also download “Big Wheel” from the NYP website through Friday, April 27th.)

Sprk has finished transcribing his recent interview with Tori. While edited versions will appear in Gay&Night Magazine and on GAY.NL, he’s put the full un-cut mega rodeo round-up version on his personal blog for all of us. Yay! (Nice job, dude!)
Anything a wife should do, I’m terrible at. Anything a mistress should do, I’ll try.
Beverly and Laura told us about this short interview published by UK newspaper The Independent.
Following Tori’s appearance on Spijkers met Koppen last weekend, 3VOOR12 Lokaal posted a long article about the event that includes several lovely photos taken by Els Oostveen and mp3s of all the songs that she performed at the appearance. (And they even link to Undented! Thanks!)
Thanks to Peter and J@ckieee for pointing this out! And if anyone can provide a translation of the article to English, that would be appreciated.
Amos prefers to support up-and-coming designers, so when planning this tour, she and Binns showcased emerging London designers in a variety of ways for the five dissimilar members. “When I think of Tori, I think of Freddy Mercury from Queen or David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust. When they were on stage, they gave you a bloody show,” says Binns.
Joe sent in a new article from Women’s Wear Daily about how Tori and her stylist, Karen Binns, decked out the Dolls.
