ANNOUNCES FALL 2021 HEADLINE TOUR

(Photo Credit: Brian ZIff ) Praise for Soccer Mommy + color theory: "Let me thank Soccer Mommy for the music" - Bernie Sanders "Her most fully realized work yet, the next step in her steady journey toward budding indie-rock stardom." - The New York Times  "Sophie Allison is unflinching in her depiction of depressive episodes and paranoia about looming death. She sets them against a deceptively sunny '90s pop template, staring down adolescent trauma with a tone that's both unsentimental and deeply empathetic." - NPR "Indie rock prodigy Sophie Allison delves into darkness and vulnerability while maintaining the same dreamy, melodic drive that made her 2018 debut, Clean, so memorable." - Rolling Stone "color theory feels dazzled with the endless creative possibilities of the studio...piercing and unpredictable. In contrast to its bigger and brighter sound, the mood is grimmer, the emotional truths darker." - Pitchfork Soccer Mommy -- a.k.a. Nashville native Sophie Allison – released her critically-acclaimed sophomore album color theory last year, earning praise from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Billboard, Entertainment Weekly, New York Magazine’s The Cut, NYLON, Esquire, and more, as well as spots on year-end lists from the likes of New York Magazine’s Vulture, The New York Times, NPR, Rolling Stone, Variety, Billboard, Pitchfork, Noisey, Stereogum, Paste, UPROXX, NYLON and more. Today she has announced her long delayed US headline tour in support of the record. Starting in September 2021 the tour stops at some of the biggest venues Allison has headlined to date, including New York’s Brooklyn Steel on September 21 and Los Angeles’ Fonda Theatre on October 28. With the exception of a few venue changes and new additions many of the shows were postponed from March 2020 and all previously purchased tickets will be honored. Squirrel Flower will provide support on the first leg and Emily Reo will support the second. Tickets go on sale Friday (4/30) at 12pm ET. See below to find a show near you, and get your tickets HERE.

Following the release of color theory, Allison earned mass acclaim, with performances opening for Bernie Sanders, numerous upcoming headline dates sold-out months in advance, confirmed festival slots at the likes of Glastonbury, and her late-night debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! The album made it’s AAA Top 20 debut after release, was #1 NACC Top 200 for 4-weeks running, and debuted on the following Billboard charts: #1 Top New Artist Albums, #1 Alternative New Artist Albums, #4 Current Alternative Albums, #4 LP Vinyl Albums, #6 Current Rock Albums, #16 Top Current Albums and in the Billboard Top 200. Additionally, with touring at a halt for the entire music industry, Soccer Mommy found remarkably inventive ways to stay busy during quarantine. She released a deluxe binder version of color theory which you can get HERE along with a demos EP of selected album tracks which you can listen to HERE. Last summer, raising money for National Bail Out & Oxfam’s COVID-19 Relief Fund, Allison released the Soccer Mommy & Friends Singles Series featuring Jay Som, Beabadoobee, SASAMI and MGMT’s Andrew VanWyngarden/Gentle Dom. She also joined forces with Actress & Unknown Mortal Orchestra, who remixed two color theory tracks. Listen to “crawling in my skin (Actress Remix)” HERE + “circle the drain (UMO Remix)” HERE. She shared an interview and performance via GRAMMY Museum® which can be seen HERE. Combining her love of video games and performing, Soccer Mommy held a digital concert on the online gaming platform Club Penguin Rewritten, with 10,000+ attendees (who all had to make their own penguin avatars to attend). So many fans logged on originally that the game’s server *literally* crashed and the event had to be rescheduled. Soccer Mommy also kicked off the NPR Tiny Desk At Home Series, performed on Pitchfork’s IG Live series, and released her very own Zoom backgrounds images. Soccer Mommy then embarked on another tour, of sorts: an 8-bit music video tour, hitting some of the cities she was meant to perform in on tour prior to lockdown.

More praise for Soccer Mommy + color theory: “At 22, Allison is sort of like the alt-rock songbook made flesh. You hear shades of the neat, autumnal sadness of early Death Cab for Cutie, the rawness of peak Lou Barlow, and the fearless adventurousness of Blur...the writing is always original, personal, and tuneful. This isn’t rock and roll revivalism; it’s proof the real thing can never die." - New York Magazine's Vulture, "The Best Albums of 2020” "On Color Theory, Allison...sets herself apart as one of her generation’s most interesting and affecting songwriters." - The FADER "Allison’s lilting voice and buoyant melodies give Color Theory an inviting atmosphere...In the multihued music she’s come to make as Soccer Mommy, though, Allison has found a way to articulate and expunge emotions that are more complex..." - New York Magazine’s The Cut "her biggest album yet" - Vanity Fair
