Today, Brooklyn’s art-pop diva and nightlife superhero Ariana and the Rose announces that the release of her new album ‘The Breakup Variety Hour’ (out October 10) will coincide with a forthcoming tour of the same name, bringing the concept record to life across the country, kicking off on October 15th at Joe’s Pub in NYC.

Today’s announce coincides with the release of Ariana’s latest song “Limitless” – an aching reflection on picking up the pieces of yourself and reassembling following heartbreak. Listen HERE.

What initially started as a series of “piano chat”-style viral videos during the pandemic, blossomed into an interactive, hilarious, and emotionally vulnerable live show that coincidentally got its start at a sold out performance at Joe’s Pub a year ago. The forthcoming album is a recorded adaptation of the show, framed as an auditory self-help guide through the stages of a breakup. 

Ariana will bring the show back on the road this fall, following a summer residency at Club Cumming in NYC, calling to mind the wonder of classic female-hosted variety shows. Think Cher’s 70s program or the Carol Burnett Show, it’s a hysterical yet moving one-woman show that bridges pop music, stand-up comedy and cabaret to make something healing and singular.

Ariana spotlighted the forthcoming album and its corresponding tour with Billboard. Check it out HERE. 

Comical, irreverent, feisty and earnest, ‘The Breakup Variety Hour’ begins with the end of a relationship via previously released single “I Just Came To Say Goodbye” before taking listeners step-by-step through the ensuing heartbreak.

Most recently, the first rung of the recovery ladder, “I’m Fine” dropped. A fizzy, manic slice of denial in the face of pain that teaches the lesson “Step 1: Fake It Til You Make It”, “I’m Fine” is a perfect portrait of the colorful charm and undeniable talents of Ariana and the Rose, which has already earned her past press love from Vogue, Paper Magazine and Nylon.

The Brooklyn popstar’s 2022 debut album ‘Lonely Hearts Club’ was praised by Billboard who called it “a siren call to the club” and People who described it as “an impressive dance LP that her foremothers (like Madonna, Robyn and Kylie Minogue) would be proud of.”

From making downtown chic street pop, to curating her own immersive art & music party residency in Brooklyn, to touring all over the country, performing at the Orlando Fringe Festival, making her late night tv debut, and more, Ariana and the Rose has become a force to be reckoned with.
