Zolita announces fall 2026 'Hell's Belles' headline tour
Following the announcement of her forthcoming album HELL'S BELLES, arriving August 28, singer-songwriter, filmmaker, and queer pop visionary Zolita today announces the HELL'S BELLES Tour. The North American headline run kicks off September 23 in Philadelphia and makes stops in New York, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, Denver, Seattle, and more before concluding with a hometown show in Los Angeles on October 14.
The tour will bring the world of HELL'S BELLES to audiences across North America, giving fans an opportunity to experience the album's duality in a live setting. Split between the softer, more romantic spirit of "BELLES" and the dark, hedonistic pulse of "HELL," the album explores the tension between vulnerability and confidence, fantasy and freedom.
The announcement arrives on the heels of recent singles "Hell's Belles" and "HARDCORE," which introduced listeners to the album's two defining identities. While "Hell's Belles" blends country and rock influences with Zolita's signature pop sensibilities, "HARDCORE" dives into a grittier electro-pop landscape fueled by instinct, power, and temptation. Together, the songs offer a first glimpse into the expansive world of HELL'S BELLES — a world fans will soon experience live on tour.
Local and venue presales begin Wednesday, June 17 at 10:00 a.m. local time. General on-sale begins Thursday, June 18 at 10:00 a.m. local time.

About Zolita:
Zolita has built her career on duality: softness and control, fantasy and confession, intimacy and spectacle. Across the past decade, the Los Angeles-based artist has emerged as one of pop’s most distinct independent voices, recognized not only for her music, but for the fully realized worlds she creates around it. A singer, songwriter, and self-directed visual storyteller, she approaches music as an immersive experience. Every project unfolds like a narrative, every song feels cinematic, and each era marks a deliberate evolution.
Raised between both coasts, Zolita first connected to music through bluegrass guitar while simultaneously developing a deep fascination with film and visual storytelling. That intersection became central to her artistic identity. While studying at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, she began shaping her music through a cinematic lens, treating songs as narrative extensions rather than isolated moments.
From the outset, Zolita has maintained a rare level of creative control. She first gained attention through self-directed releases that paired emotional immediacy with striking visuals while carving out space for underrepresented perspectives in pop. Centering queer relationships without compromise, her work presents them as messy, vulnerable, and fully realized.
Early projects like Immaculate Conception and Sappho introduced a world rooted in femininity, mythology, and reclamation, while Evil Angel expanded that vision into darker, more cinematic territory. With her 2024 album Queen of Hearts, she leaned further into diaristic songwriting that balanced vulnerability with camp. The depth of her artistic vision has earned recognition from tastemakers including PAPER, V Magazine, DAZED, and Rolling Stone.
Alongside her streaming success and devoted online fanbase, Zolita has built a formidable live presence. She’s sold out iconic venues like Bowery Ballroom and The Troubadour, performed at major festivals including Governors Ball and Boston Calling, and is set to take the stage at All Things Go DC this summer.
