The Bryson Tiller Tour adds second London gig due to demand

Bryson Tiller adds a second London date to ‘The Bryson Tiller Tour’ due to ticket sale demand.

The Grammy-nominated multi-platinum-selling recording artist is set to return to the UK later this Spring as he plays venues including London’s OVO Arena Wembley, Glasgow’s O2 Academy and Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse.

Bryson Tiller became one of the key breakout stars in 2010s contemporary R&B with the single ‘Don’t’ and a descriptively titled parent album, T R A P S O U L (2015), a moody swaggering set of slow jams that neologized a subgenre the singer/rapper took to the mainstream with multi-platinum certifications and Grammy nominations.

True to Self (2017) and A N N I V E R S A R Y (2019), his subsequent studio albums, have either topped the stateside Billboard 200 or reached the chart’s Top Ten. Tiller’s additional hits as a featured artist and duet partner are highlighted by DJ Khalid’s ‘Wild Thoughts‘ and H.E.R.’s ‘Could’ve Been’.

Tiller started singing and rapping as a high schooler in his native Louisville, Kentucky, and in his late teens released a mixtape, Killer Instinct, Vol. 1. He was just into his twenties when SoundCloud uploads such as ‘Don’t’, ‘Break Bread’ and ‘Let ‘Em Know’ brought him greater recognition. Timbaland reached out to collaborate and convinced Tiller to quit his job to do so. Drake expressed interest in signing Tiller to his OVO Sound label, but after some deliberation, Tiller accepted an offer from RCA, and made his major-label debut in May 2015 with the commercial release of ‘Don’t’.
