The tour will stop in Guelph, Toronto, Waterford and London.
Acclaimed folk-pop-Americana artist Geneviève Racette is set to bring her deeply personal fourth album, Golden, to Ontario stages this November, following a successful U.S. tour debuting her brand-new music.
Geneviève Racette's Golden is more than an album-it's a journey of healing and self-discovery through lush harmonies and introspective storytelling. After sharing her music with audiences across the United States, Racette now invites Canadian fans to join her on this cathartic journey during an intimate series of live performances.
Joined by Judith Little (backing vocals and percussion) and Éléonore Pitre (electric and acoustic guitar), Racette will deliver a spellbinding folk-pop-Americana experience that blends emotional depth with captivating melodies. The Ontario tour kicks off in Guelph (November 21), with stops in Toronto (November 22), Waterford (November 23), and London (November 24), promising to transport audiences into her universe of resilience, transformation, and heartfelt connection.
With over 80% of her team identifying as women, Racette continues to champion inclusivity and empowerment in the music industry. "I can't wait to be on the road with my all-woman trio," says Racette. "There's something so special about touring with such talented women by my side. It's going to be an amazing adventure filled with music, friendship, and new experiences. Josie and the Pussycats vibes!"
Golden has already garnered widespread acclaim, cementing Racette's reputation as one of Canada's most compelling folk voices. Highlights from the album include landing on radio charts in the United States, being featured on CBC's Heartland on October 27, and a nomination for Single of the Year at the Canadian Folk Music Awards.
Racette has also earned media recognition across North America. She's been featured on Good Morning Washington, in the Cape Gazette, and has delivered performances on TV in Nashville, Wisconsin, and Chicago. In Canada, her music is regularly supported by campus and community stations, CBC, and Sirius XM, reflecting her widespread appeal and commitment to meaningful storytelling.
