With a career spanning over ten years, Snoh Aalegra has had time to hone in on a sound that not only captivates audiences but pushes R&B forward in a big way. Aalegra first impressed the world with her evergreen aesthetic on her debut album FEELS. However, it was her second album, – Ugh, those feels again, that convinced audiences that she is the real deal.
“I Want You Around,” the album’s romantic lead single, just reached the number one spot on the urban adult contemporary radio, marking her highest-charting single to date. The growing success of the lead single and other intimate cuts earned the stellar album a noteworthy position on Rated R&B’s 30 Best R&B Albums of 2019 list.
Aalegra will keep the momentum going for herself on her Ugh, A Tour Again. The North American tour, with special guest QUIÑ, will kick off in Vancouver, British Columbia on March 13.
Before she hits the road, check out these five reasons why you should be pumped for Aalegra’s Ugh, A Tour Again.
1. You can expect to leave the show in your feels.
If there’s one thing Aalegra can make her fans do, it’s to help them tap into their feelings. From her ability to riff and run with emotional prowess to her raw and honest storytelling abilities about love and life, Aalegra is an artist dedicated to her craft. Perhaps, each venue will supply ‘feels’ tissue at the door because she is sure to leave it all on the line on stage as she brings true vibes and bears her soul about the uncomfortable truths that many are faced with.
2. QUIÑ will shut the stage down.
This may be Snoh Aalegra’s tour, but fierce newcomer QUIÑ is showing up guns blazing. With the release of her EP LUCID backing her up, QUIÑ is sure to be dousing venues with her vibrant persona and futuristic soul. Fans of the Los Angeles native can count on hearing their favorite jams, and possibly some brand new cuts. Either way, both QUIÑ and Aalegra will be shutting down stages across the nation this spring.

3. Snoh will be serving LOOKS.
Snoh Aalegra may be known for giving ‘feels,’ but she is also a force in fashion. The cinematic soul performer has a knack for showing up and showing out when it comes to her fashion, even killing the runway recently in a nude bodysuit and black peacoat for the Mugler Fall/Winter 2020 show at Paris Fashion Week. To that end, it’s clear that Aalegra has no problem breaking style rules on the runway, so as a concert-goer, expect Aalegra to turn heads and look gorgeous as she belts out her hits.
4. The debut of another – Ugh, those feels again remix.
When it comes to remixed songs from her latest LP, Aalegra is never in short supply. From the 6LACK-assisted remix of “I Want You Around” to the upgraded version of “Whoa” featuring Pharrell, it should not be taken as a surprise if Aalegra premiered another breathtaking remix onstage. The question is: which city will she gift her most loyal fans with new music in? The only way to know is to be there.
5. A surprise appearance by a frequent collaborator.
What do Aalegra and QUIÑ have in common?: love for 6LACK. Both ladies, particularly the fantasy soul diva, have recorded a few irresistible tunes with the occasional singer-rapper. Who is to say that 6LACK won’t pop up along the way and bring one of those amazing duets to audiences this spring? Fingers crossed.
