Coco Jones will bring her first-ever headlining tour to Alabama.
This week, the R&B songstress and actress announced she’s hitting the road for the first leg of her “What I Didn’t Tell You” tour. The 16-city tour kicks off in August and Jones will take the stage in Birmingham at Iron City on Aug. 29. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 30 at 10 a.m. CST through Ticketmaster. Ticket presales for the tour started on June 28. According to Ticketmaster, presale offers include two packages: a meet & greet experience package (a general admission ticket and a chance to take a photo with Jones, a signed VIP laminate, and first entry into the concert venue, where permitted) a VIP first entry package (one general admission ticket, an exclusive gift, a commemorative laminate, and first entry into the concert venue). Additional presales include an artist presale and a Spotify presale.
Jones released an announcement about the “What I Didn’t Tell You” tour on her Instagram account.
Ebony Riley will join Jones on tour. Haben Abraham and Jones’ “Bel-Air” costar Simone Joy Jones will also join the tour in select cities. The “What I Didn’t Tell You” tour is in support of her 2022 album of the same name, and the single “ICU” is currently number 10 on Billboard’s Adult A&B Airplay chart.
Jones has a few festival appearances in conjunction with the tour. She’s set to perform at the Broccoli City Festival in Washington, D.C. on July 15 and New York’s Harlem Festival of Culture on July 28. On Aug. 5, she’ll join Jhené Aiko and Queen Naija at the Toyota Arena in Ontario, Calif.
The tour announcement comes on the heels of Jones’ performance and “Best New Artist” win at the 2023 BET Awards.
“For all of my Black girls, we do have to fight a little harder to get what we deserve,” she said in her acceptance speech at Sunday’s ceremony. “But don’t stop fighting even when it doesn’t make sense. And you’re not sure how you’re going to get out of those circumstances. Keep pushing because we are deserving of great things.”
Additional cities for the “What I Didn’t Tell You” tour include Dallas, Nashville, and Norfolk, Va.
