Ledisi for Dinah Tour is the fifteenth concert tour by American singer and songwriter Ledisi in support of her thirteenth studio album For Dinah (2025). The tour began on October 2, 2025, in Chandler, Arizona.[1]
Overview
In July 2025, Ledisi announced a series of concert tours she would be embarking on for the remainder of the year.[1] The Ledisi for Dinah Tour began on October 2, 2025, in Chandler, Arizona, a day before the release of the For Dinah. The tour only reached the United States. Originally planned to be a concert tour of four dates, the tour was expanded after a four months after it had initially concluded. After the tour had concluded, Ledisi resumed the second-half of her European Tour.[1] Following the conclusion of the European Tour in late October 2025, she embarked on sixteenth concert tour aptly titled The Crown Tour in November 2025, in support of her twelfth studio album The Crown.[1]
In February 2026, Ledisi announced via Instagram that more concert dates were added to the tour, beginning with the February 21, 2026, concert in Grand Rapids, Michigan.[2]
Critical reception
Ghalib Shiraz Dhalla of online publication Indulge Magazine reviewed the Walt Disney Concert Hall show held on October 3, 2025.[3] She remarked, "This was the kind of concert we rarely get anymore: unapologetically steeped in jazz tradition yet alive with emotional immediacy."[3] Andrew Gilbert for the San Francisco Chronicle reviewed the October 6, 2025, concert performance, giving it a mixed review as Gilbert praised several of Ledisi's traditional arrangements but felt the "slyly funky arrangement of 'This Bitter Earth,' which brought to mind the Ahmad Jamal Trio, was less successful, sapping the song of some of its devastating, self-dramatizing loneliness."[4]
