Nerina Pallot: The Fire Escape Symphonies Tour

Following her acclaimed Royal Albert Hall performance celebrating 25 years of music, Brit and Ivor Novello nominated singer-songwriter Nerina Pallot has announced a new run of intimate dates across the UK and Ireland this autumn. 

The Fire Escape Symphonies Tour will see Pallot return to the grassroots venues that have always been at the heart of her career. Performing completely solo, armed only with her songs, stories, piano and guitar, the tour offers audiences a rare opportunity to experience her music in its most direct and personal form. 

Spanning England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland, the tour follows one of the biggest moments of Pallot’s career and deliberately trades grand stages for close connection. For fans who discovered her through Fires, A Psalm for Emily Salvi, or anywhere in between, Fire Escape Symphonies promises an evening of honesty, humour and songs that have soundtracked lives for over two decades. 

“After the Royal Albert Hall, I felt a profound gratitude for every fan won over the years, many of whom had travelled far and wide to see me live. By way of thank you, it feels only right that I return to venues closer to home for them. Moreover, the magic of music often happens in smaller rooms, where every lyric lands and every audience becomes part of the story. Fire Escape Symphonies is about stripping everything back and reconnecting with the songs and the people who have carried them with me for all these years. “— Nerina Pallot 

The announcement continues a landmark period for Pallot, marking twenty-five years since the release of her debut album Dear Frustrated Superstar and celebrating a catalogue that has earned critical acclaim, loyal audiences and a reputation as one of Britain’s most distinctive songwriting voices.
