Billie Eilish Announces New HIT ME HARD AND SOFT Tour
Billie Eilish is back, y’all! The famous singer immortalized through her hits such as ‘bad guy’, ‘bellyache’, ‘Ocean Eyes’, and many others is returning to both the radios and the stage this year.
The newly announced Hit me Hard and Soft album is her third studio album, set to release on May 17th, 2024. The album will be directly followed by a concert tour taking place September 2024 – July 2025.
Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Album
Like with every album, Billie and her brother Finneas will embark on a concert tour in celebration of new music. The creative duo has been insanely creative over the years, so it’s no doubt the new album is going to be considered a masterpiece in no time. After all, every single thing Billie and Finneas write turns into gold, as evidenced by the award-winning “What Was I Made For?” and “No Time to Die” written for Barbie and James Bond ‘s No Time to Die movies.
However, while Billie had released some music in the meantime, we haven’t had a studio album since 2021, when she released Happier than Ever. It’s been three years since we’ve had a collection of all-new Billie songs, and this summer is the summer that changes.
Not much is known about the new album expect it’s called Hit me Hard and Soft. The album comes out on May 17 2024.
Billie Eilish announced the album on April 8 through an elaborate marketing strategy involving billboards displaying snippets of lyrics from the album.
A couple of weeks later, Eilish announced a tracklist which showed the album consisting of 10 tracks. There’s going to be a listening party on May 15, and you can get tickets for it HERE.
Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour
Three weeks after the announcement for the new album, the artist announced the upcoming concert tour in support of the new album. In the announcement, she mentioned tickets going on pre-sale – and many fans were puzzled as to why would she announce a tour this early considering the album was not yet out. In fact, the main question was, how could fans buy tickets for a tour celebrating an album they haven’t even heard. However, it seems the fans weren’t puzzled by those questions too long as they quickly lined up to purchase tickets.
The tour titled Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour will officially begin in September 2024.
The first show will take place in Quebec City in the Videotron Centre, on September 29, 2024. Ultimately, the tour is set to conclude on July 27, 2025, at the 3Arena in Dublin.
