That sense of humanity is stark on Flying With Angels.” “finds humility and grace amid the ‘permanent emergency’ of the present”September 16, 2025—Suzanne Vega—widely regarded as one of the foremost songwriters of her generation or any other—is adding a run of West Coast dates to her Flying With Angels Tour. Making stops at Los Angeles’ storied Largo, San Francisco’s Bimbo’s 365 Club, the Aladdin in Portland, Seattle’s Neptune and more, Vega will be joined on stage by her longtime collaborator and guitarist Gerry Leonard (David Bowie, Rufus Wainwright, Laurie Anderson, Duncan Sheik) along with cellist Stephanie Winters. See below for a list of dates; tickets for all upcoming shows are available for purchase at suzannevega.com/tour. Vega is touring in support of her critically acclaimed new record Flying With Angels, out now on Cooking Vinyl. Produced by Gerry Leonard, Flying With Angels is Vega’s first full-length album of all new music in over a decade; see below for a complete track listing. The record is available to stream/purchase HERE. Flying With Angels continues to receive praise in the media, with Forbes hailing it as a “wonderful new record” and American Songwriter noting that “[On Flying With Angels] Vega showcases her versatility.” MOJO raves in a four-star review that “Vega’s first album in a decade takes an abrupt turn, infused with a vibrancy and political urgency that is very ‘now.’” “Each song on the album takes place in an atmosphere of struggle,” adds Vega. “Struggle to survive, to speak, to dominate, to win, to escape, to help someone else, or just live.” Of Vega’s performances The New York Times notes that she “is attentive to the realm of the unseen.” Finding Connecticut lauded a recent concert as “nothing short of mesmerizing, weaving tales through her soulful songs in a cozy setting that allowed for a deep connection with the audience.” Vega emerged as a leading figure of the folk-music revival of the early 1980s. Since the release of her self-titled, critically acclaimed 1985 debut album, she has written and recorded numerous songs that have become part of the contemporary music vernacular, including “Luka,” “Marlene on the Wall” and “Tom’s Diner,” an a cappella piece that was remixed by U.K. electronic dance duo DNA and became a major club hit. It remains an oft-sampled and covered standard by artists across the musical spectrum. Her albums, including her self-titled debut, follow-up Solitude Standing and 99.9F have sold millions of copies worldwide.  album artSUZANNE VEGA FLYING WITH ANGELS 1. Speakers’ Corner 2.
