Björk has announced the “Cornucopia” arena tour, which will begin in Lisbon, Portugal, in September. Conceived on the basis of Björk’s latest album “Utopia,” “Cornucopia” debuted as a show in her artistic residency at The Shed in New York, receiving stellar reviews. Rolling Stone called it “an avant-garde sound and image show.” The new “Cornucopia” puts on a show reworked to include songs from his currently Grammy-nominated album “Moat.”
Cornucopia was always intended as a world, both for “Utopia” and the newly released album “Moat.” I’m really excited to premiere these two worlds colliding this fall in southern Europe.
