From Intimate Venues to Arena Spectacle: Kali Uchis Announces "Sincerely, Tour"
There's something special about watching an artist's journey from small venues to commanding massive arenas. Colombian-American sensation Kali Uchis is making that leap this summer with her first-ever headlining arena tour. The "Sincerely, Tour" feels like the natural next chapter for an artist whose star has risen so steadily over the past few years.
From Club Shows to Madison Square Garden
Beginning August 14th in Portland, Oregon, Uchis will embark on a 24-date North American journey that wraps up September 25th in Denver. The venue list reads like a music industry bucket list — Madison Square Garden on September 11th and LA's Kia Forum on August 20th stand out as particular milestones. For fans who've followed her evolution from mixtapes to mainstream success, seeing her name on these marquees feels particularly satisfying.
The tour hits a perfect mix of major cities across the US and Canada. Whether you're catching her in Miami's vibrant scene, Toronto's diverse music landscape, or Chicago's storied venues, the energy promises to be electric. And if you've ever seen San Diego's eleven-piece band Thee Sacred Souls perform, you'll understand why their addition as openers throughout the tour is particularly exciting — their soulful sound complements Uchis' vibe perfectly.
The Album Behind the Tour
Anyone who's spent time with Uchis' new album "Sincerely" (released May 9th) knows why this tour feels so significant. It's her most vulnerable work yet, with tracks like "Sunshine & Rain..." and "ILYSMIH" showcasing both her vocal range and emotional depth. Have you seen the recently released video for "All I Can Say"? It's a perfect visual accompaniment to the album's intimate themes of love, healing, and self-discovery.
What makes Uchis so compelling is her refusal to be boxed in. From her earlier work on "Isolation" to the lush soundscapes of "Orquídeas," she's consistently pushed boundaries between R&B, soul, pop, and Latin influences. This tour represents not just bigger venues but a bigger canvas for her artistic vision.
Securing Your Spot
If you're hoping to experience the tour firsthand, mark your calendar now. Presales begin Wednesday, May 14th at 10 a.m. local time, with general sales following on Friday, May 16th. Tickets will be available through Kali's official website. Given her passionate fanbase and the limited arena dates, these shows will likely sell quickly.
More Than Music
When an artist moves to arena venues, something transformative happens. The intimate confessions of albums like "Sincerely" somehow become even more powerful when shared collectively with thousands of other fans. It's one thing to connect with Uchis' music through headphones; it's something entirely different to experience it alongside a sea of others who feel just as deeply about her work.
This tour represents a pivotal moment in Uchis' artistic journey. For those who've watched her evolve from critically acclaimed newcomer to genre-defying star, these shows offer a chance to witness that growth in real time, as she brings her unique musical vision to some of North America's most iconic stages.
