It will see her perform tracks from her second album Sling including “Amoeba” and “Blouse” as well as material from her breakthrough album Immunity.
In a tweet in 2018 she told her fans that her track “B.O.M.D.” which stands for “boy of my dreams” is also “G.O.M.D”, meaning “girl of my dreams”.
She continued to say “was wondering how to ever say this publicly LOL”, as she revealed to fans that she’s bisexual.
Clairo later told Them that she “didn’t exactly know what my label was or what I would call my sexuality” adding that she knew she loved “people”.
“I think a lot of LGBTQ+ musicians feel like once they come out, they get put into this box. It shouldn’t define them”, she said.
The 2022 live shows will see Clairo introduce a new anti-harassment initiative as she partners with SafeTour and Calling All Crows.
This is “to provide a safe and harassment free concert experience” as the singer integrates a dedicated representative from Calling All Crows into her touring team.
Clairo herself says: “Now that shows are starting to come back into our everyday lives, it’s important to prioritise everyone’s experience to the fullest.
“Everyone deserves a resource and everyone deserves to enjoy the show in peace. I want the audience to know that there is someone who will listen and believe them at every show.”
The two foundations will “respond to requests for support through a text helpline and proactive canvassing of each concert and provide messaging and educational support so that attendees can take part in making these shows and their own communities safer.”
They will also provide sexual harassment prevention and response training to the full band, crew and interested venue staff to create an inclusive environment on the road.
She will also tour the US in spring 2022 alongside Arlo Parks and fans can now get their hands on tickets for those shows.
