Melanie Martinez

Today, Melanie Martinez, multi-platinum artist and multi-talented creator, announces "HADES: THE SACRIFICE", her new North American and European tour to accompany "HADES", her fourth studio album.

About the tour, Melanie shares: "When I wrote HADES, I knew the tour for this album had to be immersive and cinematic. Creating a new character and imagining how she'll perform in this new universe is so exciting.

This tour is very different from anything I've done before, and it incorporates more staging elements and camera effects that I'm really enthusiastic about. We're working to give each song its moment of glory.

" HADES debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200, marking its fourth consecutive Top 10 placement and third consecutive Top 5 placement. The album also debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Alternative Albums chart as well as the Rock & Alternative chart.

A dark and maximalist journey through 18 tracks exploring the fractured psyche of modern life, HADES confirms Martinez as one of the boldest voices of her generation.

In a recent album review, Rolling Stone calls Melanie a "prolific visionary with boundless imagination…" This announcement follows a fan-driven campaign for HADES, which Melanie unveiled through a series of sold-out shows in London, Amsterdam and Toronto.

Designed as immersive album-universe previews, these events brought fans closer than ever to the music, a vision Melanie later expanded with intimate concerts in New York, Mexico and Los Angeles, where she presented the album live for the first time with a full band
