Today, British multi-hyphenate artist Wesley Joseph reveals a string of headlining Spring shows in Los Angeles at The Lodge Room, in Toronto at Velvet Underground, and in Brooklyn at Baby’s All Right — dates and tickets below.

Last week, Joseph released a COLORS session alongside his powerful new single "HIATUS", a “narrative and conclusion of growing pains, a teenager talking to his future self and his future self talking back", he explains in his own words. The release of "HIATUS" followed singles "COLD SUMMER" and "MONSOON", both of which will feature on Joseph's forthcoming project, GLOW, set to release February 17th via Secretly Canadian.

2021 saw Joseph release his debut project “ULTRAMARINE” to critical acclaim, earning accolades across the music and fashion worlds, including the likes of The FADER, GQ, i-D, Pigeons & Planes, Vogue and more. 2022 was another standout year; Joseph was named in Vevo’s Artists To Watch 2023, nominated for an AIM award nomination and was featured on Loyle Carner’s lauded new album “hugo”. Joseph shows no sign of slowing down this year, starring in Apple Music’s ‘Ones To Watch 2023’ list, DIY Magazine’s Class of 23’, i Newspaper’s Stars For 2023 and a BBC Radio 1 Future Artist inclusion.

At his North American live dates, fans can expect to hear live renditions of GLOW, showcasing Joseph’s talents across songwriting and production, and his flawless transitions between singing and rapping. Fans can stay tuned for more show details by signing up for Wesley's mailing list. These North American dates will mark the first headline appearances from Wesley Joseph following his sold out debut London performance at XOYO in May 2022, which featured a surprise guest appearance from Jorja Smith, and will follow an upcoming UK & Ireland tour in February and March with Loyle Carner. Today, Wesley Joseph also announces his second UK headline show in London at the 1,500-capacity KOKO Theater, taking place on Thursday May 18th.
