Snail Mail

Snail Mail, aka Lindsey Jordan, is back on tour after vocal chord surgery postponed dates earlier in 2022. Jordan doesn't belt them out like Adele (who has faced the same throat surgery in the past); her groove is guitar-based indie/alt, with a quirky, atmospheric and sometimes arrhythmic approach to songwriting. With Momma, Hotline TNT. Sold out.

$30 ($25 adv.).

media release: Snail Mail (Lindsey Jordan) has shared “Adore You,” the early demo version of the lead single and title track off of her critically acclaimed new album Valentine. Featuring early lyrics and a different structure, the whispered, vulnerable lo-fi version is a sonically opposite yet equally devastating flipside, proving that in any configuration “Valentine” is as powerful a lovelorn torch song as they come.

Jordan also released a live full band performance video of “Valentine,” performed at the Armour-Stiner Octagon House. WATCH HERE.

Shortly after Jordan released Valentine, she was diagnosed with vocal cord polyps requiring surgery and a North American tour postponement. Snail Mail will play an extensive run of North American, UK and European tour dates in 2022. All dates are available via snailmail.band.

Valentine, the second album from Snail Mail, has emerged as one of 2021’s most celebrated releases, featuring prominently in best of the year roundups from New York Times, Vogue, NME, Pitchfork, The New Yorker and many others. She made her late-night television debut with an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. On release, Valentine landed at #1 on the Billboard Emerging Artist Chart and #61 in the Billboard Top 200 in the US, and entered the Top 40 album charts in the UK and Australia. 

Valentine was written and produced by 22-year-old Lindsey Jordan and co-produced by Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Waxahatchee). Written in 2019-2020 the album is filled with romance, heartbreak, blood, sweat and tears. But Valentine is poised and self-possessed, channeling its anger and dejection into empowering revenge fantasies and rewriting the narrative of its own fate.
