The acclaimed Canadian artist returns to the stage after more than a year away.
A Comeback After a Canceled Farewell
Over a year since canceling the second half of their so-called “last American tour,” Cindy Lee — the musical project of Patrick Flegel — is set to play a short run of North American shows this November. The tour follows the breakthrough success of 2024’s Diamond Jubilee, an ambitious triple LP that garnered widespread acclaim despite being absent from streaming platforms.
Select Dates in Four Cities
The brief run kicks off November 5 at Chicago’s Empty Bottle before stops in Toronto, Montreal, and New York City. Freak Heat Waves will open all dates except Toronto, where Blue Light will take the stage.
The Cult of Diamond Jubilee
Released with little promotion and distributed via a retro Geocities website, Diamond Jubilee defied music industry norms and earned a Polaris Music Prize shortlist spot. Critics praised its artistry and its rejection of the streaming economy’s relentless self-promotion. This tour offers fans a rare chance to see Cindy Lee’s genre-blurring vision brought to life on stage.
