On the heels of her acclaimed recent full length Flux, multidisciplinary artist Poppy has announced an expansive world tour kicking off March 8 in Sacramento. The outing will hit every corner of the country over the following months, followed by a run of festival appearances in the Summer (including Roskilde, Welcome to Rockville, When We Were Young, and more), before concluding the year with a full European run in the Fall. Flux was produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen (M83, Deafheaven, St. Vincent), who had Poppy and her band record live to tape, resulting in an organic feel that is especially suited to live performance. The Never Find My Place Tour marks Poppy's first proper run since the I Disagree tour was cut short in early 2020 after a hugely successful US leg during which she performed a slew of sold out shows to the biggest crowds of her career.
Flux is another ambitious leap for the ever-evolving musician, putting a renewed focus on a stream-lined songwriting approach that foregrounds her indelible vocal melodies atop a kaleidoscopic mosaic of overdriven guitars. The album was preceded by self-directed videos for "So Mean" and "Flux" (which featured a pastel dream world constructed by Australian visual/sculpture artist Pip & Pop), and a video by accomplished stop motion animator/director Chris Ullens (Rex Orange County, Lee Ann Womack) for "Her." Each visual deepens the context of the album, revealing a world brimming with blisteringly sunny vocal melodies and saturated sonics.

Poppy is an avant-garde pop enigma / AI and multi-hyphenate: singer / songwriter, performance artist (YouTube channel has 4 million followers, over 463 million views), fashionista, comic book writer, and more.
New York Magazine calls her "the Warhol of the YouTube era".
