Ethel Cain concert chronology

The Freezer Bride Tour was the first concert tour by American singer-songwriter Hayden Silas Anhedönia under the stage name Ethel Cain, in support of her debut studio album Preacher's Daughter (2022). The tour began on July 14, 2022 in Bloomington, Indiana, and concluded in London, England, on December 7.

Background[edit]

On March 17, 2022, alongside the release of "Gibson Girl", Cain announced her debut studio album, Preacher's Daughter, which was stated to release on May 12.[1] At the beginning of June of the same year, the singer revealed she would be kicking off her first concert tour across the United States.[2] Weeks after, she announced several dates across Europe; in the United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands and France.[2]

Critical reception[edit]

The show was described by Variety as "the average length of a revivalist preacher's sermon, delivered to an audience just as transfixed."[3] Her vocals were "by turns restrained and sultry, joyous and meditative". According to the magazine, Cain "takes audience interaction to a new level, not only touching their hands but sometimes holding them, gazing into fans' eyes unwaveringly."[3] About the songs, the singer "articulates the stories so deliciously."[4]

Setlist[edit]

This set list is representative of the show on September 2, 2022, in Dallas, Texas.[5] It is not intended to represent all dates throughout the tour. Cain performed seven songs from Preacher's Daughter and two from Inbred.

  1. "Strangers"
  2. "American Teenager"
  3. "A House in Nebraska"
  4. "Family Tree"
  5. "Thoroughfare"
  6. "Crying During Sex"
