Lucky Daye is taking the biggest swing of his career next spring, and Raleigh is on the route. The Grammy winning singer brings The ALOUD! Tour to The Ritz on Sunday, March 14, 2027, a room small enough to put his voice right on top of the crowd, which is exactly where it belongs.

The tour supports ALOUD!, his fifth album, released in October on Warner Records after he signed a new deal with the label in June 2026. The North American run opens March 2 in Orlando and closes April 8 in San Francisco, and it is billed as the biggest headline tour he has ever taken on the road.

Daye, born David Debrandon Brown in New Orleans, built his following on records like Painted and Candycane Lane and on a voice that slides between classic soul and modern R&B without ever losing the thread. Songs like “Over,” “Roll Some Mo” and “That’s You” turned him into one of the most respected live singers in the genre, and a club date at The Ritz gives Raleigh the close up version of a show that is playing much bigger rooms on other stops.

The show starts at 7:00 PM at The Ritz, 2820 Industrial Drive in Raleigh. Tickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster.

My passion for visual storytelling began around age 10, inspired by analyzing movie scenes and music videos. As a self-taught photographer, videographer, and graphic designer, I specialize in capturing the high energy of sports and live events. Beyond the field and stage, I also enjoy food photography and cooking, bringing a personal, detailed approach to every shot. Whether behind the camera or creating graphics, I focus on telling authentic stories through my work.

Following the release of her final early single “Warmest Shade of Blue” earlier this week, Iranian Swedish-born singer, songwriter and producer Snoh Aalegra releases her new album Legendary Love via Stem. Alongside the album’s release, Snoh is also sharing a new music video for the standout album track “Supernova”, directed by Alfred Marroquín, that finds Snoh dashing through London.

Her first full-length release in five years, the new album immortalizes a karmic relationship that never fully materialized and cements the impact it had on her own life through documenting her own personal growth in her most introspective and incisive songwriting of her career to-date. Writing through the emotional journey of the relationship in real time over a two-and-a-half year period, Snoh channeled the veracity of those emotions into the lyrics and equally, the recording process that followed.

She demanded absolute authenticity in the music to do her soul-bearing words justice, reuniting Joel Compass and building a new creative partnership with Josh Grant to forge the true-to-life sound that captured her experiences with her unnamed muse, informed by the warm nostalgia of ‘80s R&B. Every synthesizer, drum machine and guitar line was captured using authentic vintage gear that paid reverence to the influences she was drawing from. She also enlisted some of her musical heroes from that era to capture those sounds and revitalized the experience of making music for her, co-writing with Babyface, and working with the likes of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Raphael Saadiq, and Nile Rodgers. Contemporary collaborators like Mustafa, Dahi, Daniel Caesar and more also contributed to Legendary Love.

In a message to her listeners shared alongside the release of the album, Snoh wrote:

“To a love that felt written long before we met, even if it only lived in a moment. A karmic, ancient memory I recognized before I understood it. This album is my dedication to what never arrived in my hands, but still took root in my chest like something sacred. For the magic I didn’t get to keep, I immortalized it in these songs, as proof it was real.”
