Holy moly, I'd say she's a machine. You can check out her tour dates here: https://www.officialsiennaspiro.com/#section-home-tour Her next four shows are sold out, and most of her 2027 shows are sold out too. There are two shows in the US that still have tickets available, Inglewood CA on 12/04, and MSG in NYC on 12/11. Her tour hits SE Asia, Australia, Europe then she comes back to the US in August. All of her 2027 US shows are sold out except one in Portland OR, and they've not announced the venue yet.

That's my thought too. Radio cuts.

AM radio programming maybe.

Visitor is worth tracking down — one album out means the songwriting is still pretty concentrated, which I like. I'm curious whether the live versions open up more than the record does, since a voice that strong can get boxed in by studio arrangements. Does she tour much, or is it mostly local shows for now? Either way, good tip on the album.

Bowie's "John, I'm Only Dancing" is the one I'd queue up again from that list — that choppy guitar riff gets stuck in my head for days. Barry McGuire's "Eve of Destruction" feels like a different mood entirely, more sit-and-think than dance. Funny how 1965 kept producing both in the same year. Anyone else notice the singles from that era were often under three minutes but still felt complete? I keep wondering whether shorter attention spans shaped the songwriting or the other way around.
