ANOHNI has shared a new song with ANOHNI and the Johnsons, “Breaking.” The new single is out now via Rough Trade and comes ahead of their U.S. tour dates this fall. Check out the song and tour dates below.

“Breaking” follows ANOHNI and the Johnsons’ 2023 album, My Back Was a Bridge For You to Cross. It was recorded during the sessions for that album.

ANOHNI had this to say about the upcoming tour: “I am presenting a series of concerts in Mexico, the US and Canada this fall. It is my first time touring since 2016, and first time with a band in 14 years. I feel like I want to sing for people, to affirm that these times are unprecedented, and to hold and express a sense of what’s really happening.”

My Back Was a Bridge For You to Cross was ANOHNI’s first album since 2016’s HOPELESSNESS and the first album to bear the Johnsons name since 2010’s Swanlights (released under the Antony and the Johnsons moniker). ANOHNI, who was born in the UK but is based in New York City, teamed with soul producer Jimmy Hogarth (Amy Winehouse, Duffy, Tina Turner) for My Back Was a Bridge For You to Cross. They then assembled a backing band consisting of Leo Abrahams, Chris Vatalaro, Sam Dixon, and string arranger Rob Moose.
