British Songstress Laura Mvula is set to perform three shows this month in celebration of her second album titled The Dreaming Room, which was released on June 16, 2016. Mvula mixes R&B, soul, jazz and even indie, folk and pop to create a sound all her own. Her music is presented with much culture and appreciation for her roots, which can be seen in her music video for “Overcome” feating Nile Rodgers.

All three tour dates are listed below with ticket links:
