Vanessa Carlton Shares “Ascension” In ‘Liberman’ Trailer, Announces Fall Tour

Vanessa Carlton is gearing up to release her fifth studio album, Liberman, in just a month. She just released her single “Willows,” and thanks to her Blue Pool EP from July, we’ve already gotten a taste of four other songs as well. And the fun hasn’t stopped yet: Vanessa just released a trailer for Liberman, which includes the album’s closing track, “Ascension.”

During the video, Vanessa explains a bit of background on the new Liberman songs as well:

I wanted it to be 10 songs, and I also wanted it to be short. And I wanted it to also feel like a dream, like you were experiencing a dream and then the dream was over.

I listen to a lot of music that feels like medicine, like it really kind of changes your state instantly, and not just because of the structure of the song or the lyrics, but because of the sounds of the sonic.

That’s why I made the record. I wanted to make the type of album that I wanted to listen to when I walk and wear headphones.

In addition to the Liberman trailer, Vanessa also has some more exciting news: A tour! From late October through December, Vanessa will be touring all across the eastern half of the US and Canada. Don’t worry if you don’t see a date near you – more tour dates will be announced for early 2016 shortly.

You can buy concert tickets from Vanessa’s official site now. If you buy concert tickets, you will also have the option to bundle that with a pre-order of an autographed copy of Liberman, which you can pick up on the day of the show. You will also get a digital download on October 23rd.
