Rina Sawayama will also be touring the UK and Ireland in October.

Rina Sawayama has shared the title-track of her new album Hold The Girl whilst confirming the details of a US tour during November.

“Hold the Girl was the first song I wrote for the record at the end of 2020,” Sawayama said. “I had gone to therapy and had a revelation, so I decided to write this song. That was the start of it. I was crying before going into the studio to write about it.”
