Tori Amos Releases New Album 'Native Invader' On Decca Records Today

Tori Amos releases her highly anticipated new album, Native Invader, today on Decca Records. Amos previously shared album tracks "Cloud Riders" "Up The Creek" and "Reindeer King" to a swell of excitement and the new record has received acclaim from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, NPR, Consequence of Sound, Lenny Letter, Stereogum and much more. At the centre of Native Invader is this theme of division and with the new body of work available in its entirety today, Amos looks forward to unifying fans & allies on the road. Tori Amos' extensive North American fall concert schedule kicks off on October 24 as part of a larger world tour which begins in September in Europe.

Following 2014's Unrepentant Geraldines - her eighth Billboard Top 10 album -- Amos's fifteenth studio album is an intense feast of melody, protest, tenderness and pain. In the summer of 2016, she took a road trip through North Carolina's Smoky Mountains. The intention was to reconnect with the stories and songlines of her mother's family, who were from the North Carolina and Tennessee Smoky Mountain area. That winter, two seismic events knocked the plan off its axis. The fall out from the US Election. And in January her mother, Maryellen Amos, suffered a severe stroke leaving her unable to speak.

A pioneer across multiple platforms, Tori was the first major label artist to offer a single for download. Nominated for multiple Grammy Awards, she has had her songs turned into graphic novels and has produced ground-breaking videos throughout her career. In late 2016 she released the title song 'Flicker' to the acclaimed Netflix documentary 'Audrie and Daisy', addressing issues of high school rape. A noted humanitarian, Tori is co-founder of RAINN (Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network), which is the United States' largest anti-sexual assault organization.
