Immediately following the release of Trying Not To Think About It, JoJo will embark on a six-date run of intimate live shows across Boston, NYC, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Nashville & Los Angeles to celebrate and share the music with her fans across the country. Award winning singer/songwriter Tiara Thomas will open on all dates. Tickets will go on sale today, Friday, August 20 at 10:00 a.m. local time at https://www.iamjojoofficial.com/. Full dates below.
The 12-track EP is a musical expression of her continued honesty, vulnerability and transparency around mental health, tackling the different shades of it - including anxiety, depression, negative thoughts, relationship self-sabotage, and emotional immaturity.
"Trying Not To Think About It is a result of feeling sooooo lost, scared, and confused at the end of 2020 - desperate to believe in/find my light once again. Sometimes we feel like we're the only ones. But we NEVER are alone in our darkness," JoJo says of the project. "If you listen, I hope this project makes you feel seen, validated, not crazy, and hopeful that you won't feel bad forever. You're more in control than you think. Guys - I am overwhelmed with gratitude to perform these new songs + some of your faves on 6 intimate, very, very special LIVE TOUR dates in October. I can't wait to see you. And FEEL you."
In May 2020, JoJo's fourth studio album good to know debuted at #1 on the Billboard R&B Albums Chart and earned widespread global acclaim from Vulture, TIME, Variety, NYLON, NPR, The FADER, and more, with Associated Press proclaiming "good to know is more than good. It's grand."
