When not performing in her dressing room (see below) and writing letters to President Obama, Ani DiFranco has been spending the majority of her recent time touring in support of last year’s Red Letter Year, a characteristic that will continue well into the coming months. Hot off appearances in Australia and Singapore, the Buffalo native has announced plans for an east coast-heavy North American tour, set to begin in early March. The two month trek will kick off in Wilmington, Delaware and includes stops all up and down the eastern seaboard through late April.

Tickets for a number of the upcoming dates are available via Ticketmaster.com.
