Along the way, the two-time Grammy winner will swing into Lewiston, NY’s Artpark Mainstage Theater on Tuesday, June 18 and New York City’s Radio City Music Hall on Monday, July 24.
“I’ll be playing the album ‘Fumbling Towards Ecstasy’ in its entirety, along with some of my greatest hits, hopefully all of your favorites and maybe a few new ones,” she added.
“I’m in the process of writing,” the 55-year-old told USA Today. “I could not tell you when a new record is coming, but there will be some new songs played on the tour.”

“Fumbling Towards Ecstasy”
McLachlan’s third studio album was released in 1993 and immediately struck a chord in her native Canada.
The pensive 12-track record is known for its lead single “Possession” which tells the story of a deranged male fan obsessed with a woman, based on McLachlan’s stalker.
Other standout songs include the jangly, poppy “Plenty,” rocking “Circle” and the nervy, discordant “Fear.”
Pitchfork called the album “a fascinating outlier in (McLachlan’s) catalog, an unsparing and expansive album written in the mountains of Quebec following traumatic experiences in her life.”
You can listen to “Fumbling Towards Ecstasy” in its entirety here.
