Alicia Keys concert chronology

Alicia + Keys World Tour is the sixth concert tour by American singer and songwriter Alicia Keys in support of her seventh and eighth studio albums Alicia (2020) and Keys (2021).[1][2] This is Keys' first global tour since her 2013 Set the World on Fire Tour.[3] The tour started on June 9, 2022, in Birmingham, England, and is set to conclude on May 19, 2023, in Guadalajara, México, after 59 concerts in 19 countries and 3 continents.[a]

Background

Keys announced the tour on January 21, 2020 along with the release date of her seventh studio album Alicia.[4][5] The tour is Alicia Keys’ first world concert tour in seven years, with her last world tour being her Set the World on Fire Tour in 2013.[3] American Express card holders in select markets in Europe and North America were able to purchase tickets on pre-sale.[7] Tickets for several engagements sold out, prompting additional dates to be added to the tour.

Critical reception

For the concert at the AO Arena in Manchester, Louisa Gregson from Manchester Evening News wrote that Keys "deliver[ed] a slick but highly charged performance" and her "range and tone was as soulful as ever, enough to give goose bumps, enough to transport you mentally to her part of the world".[8] Adam Davidson from Clash, who reviewed The O2 Arena concert in London, wrote that the concert “encapsulated why she is one of the great talents of modern music” and without many brakes in the concert, Keys “managed to hit all the difficult notes right to the end and was on top form throughout".[9] He further commented that Keys “can do it all: sing, play piano, DJ and most importantly put on an incredible spectacle for her fans”.[9]

Gary Graff from The Oakland Press wrote that Keys “deftly blended musical substance with visual style and just a bit of schtick, but with a grounded earthiness and intimacy that’s often missing from the spectacles of her pop and soul peers”.[10] In her review of the Jacobs Pavilion concert in Cleveland, Annie Nickoloff from Cleveland.com noted that “Keys instantly commanded the crowd before she sang a note or struck a single piano key” and further commented that Keys “regularly sat at the piano, showing off her prowess of the instrument, meshing her performance with her talented backing band to create soulful, jazz-tinged textures”.[11] For the concert at the Huntington Bank Pavilion, Eloise Marie Valadez from The Times of Northwest Indiana wrote that "Keys kept the audience's attention with her impeccable vocals and exceptional keyboard playing" and performed a "fascinating segment" of original and unlocked versions of songs.[12] In his review of the Smart Financial Centre concert, Douglas Devaughn from Houston Press noted that "Her show is almost two hours of hits" and concluded that "while Alicia has been gone from the major tour circuit for almost a decade, she hasn’t lost a step".[13] Reviewing Keys’ concert at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa Event Center in Tampa, Maggie Duffy from Tampa Bay Times wrote that Keys “connected with the audience throughout her intimate concert” and “went on to deliver an outstanding live performance that cemented her as one of the greatest musicians and singers of all time”.[14]
