The self-described trap metal artist kicks off the six-week trek on Sept. 4 in San Diego.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In advance of the tour, Zheani has released a new single, \u201cSex Never Dies,\u201d<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>which arrives with<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>a striking, NSFW 360\u00b0 visualizer (<a href=\"https:\/\/rxfc49ebb.cc.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001hOthdqYZkSTy72rhkNep6H4drqegNfDlq70iNXI4_ShEYlmwJK-7Bp8dNTz07FJEAjy8eq-K8MJrNtNqDQRqUUXVSbpM33e6r0ytk3RfeeRM-u0vcnm-NOnmgRX-3TkuHQ_1JCyjTR3L59bImlQBUQEL9BAtAwq1vnDudcAlEHBW0A62t24GLg==&amp;c=8O50swJ_5Mke9Ra0CaF-zg7QrBKSOR9UpI0hMjV5WAai8RdpuP-7HA==&amp;ch=UIerOYUJUbXHxzkyfH4zaYrM6Ewcbd26BiXM6U3FAjxIPWTJ3c09yw==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=moUd5Cop_r4<\/a>). The visualizer perfectly encapsulates Zheani&#8217;s fearless artistic vision, pushing the boundaries of traditional music videos with a visceral and immersive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked about her new single, Zheani quoted Pamela Anderson, quoting Nietzsche: \u201cTime is a flat circle. Everything we have done or will do we will do over and over and over again \u2013 forever.\u201d The statement reflects the core of Zheani&#8217;s work, which often explores themes of cyclical existence, trauma, and resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zheani\u2019s North American dates follow the successful European leg of her Maenad world tour, which was preceded by her sold-out U.S. live debut\u2014a 10-date journey that electrified audiences on both coasts and across Texas. Known for her genre-defying sound that blends elements of trap, metal, and industrial music, Zheani has quickly established herself as a powerful and unique voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her message of self-empowerment continues to resonate with fans worldwide, as she challenges norms and encourages listeners to embrace their individuality. With each performance, Zheani invites audiences to confront their demons and reclaim their power, creating a space where art and rebellion intersect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Maenad World Tour\u201d North American dates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 4&nbsp;San Diego, CA&nbsp;Music Box<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 5&nbsp;Los Angeles, CA&nbsp;The Fonda Theatre<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 6&nbsp;San Francisco, CA&nbsp;The Independent<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 7&nbsp;Sacramento, CA&nbsp;Ace of Spades<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 9 &nbsp;Portland, OR&nbsp;The Hawthorne Theatre<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 10&nbsp;Vancouver, BC&nbsp;Fortune Sound Club<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 12&nbsp;Seattle, WA&nbsp;The Crocodile<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 13&nbsp;Boise, ID&nbsp;The Olympic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 14&nbsp;Salt Lake City, UT&nbsp;The Complex Grand<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 15&nbsp;Denver, CO&nbsp;Summit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 17&nbsp;Lawrence, KS&nbsp;The Bottleneck<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 19&nbsp;Minneapolis, MN&nbsp;Fine Line<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 20&nbsp;Chicago, IL&nbsp;Riot Fest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 24&nbsp;Toronto, ON&nbsp;The Velvet Underground<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 25&nbsp;Montreal, QC&nbsp;Theatre Fairmount *Courage*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 26&nbsp;Boston, MA&nbsp;Brighton Music Hall<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 27&nbsp;Brooklyn, NY&nbsp;Elsewhere Hall<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 29&nbsp;Philadelphia, PA&nbsp;Underground Arts<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">September 30&nbsp;Washington, DC&nbsp;Union Stage<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 1&nbsp;Charlotte, NC&nbsp;Underground @ Fillmore<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 2&nbsp;Atlanta, GA&nbsp;Terminal West<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 4&nbsp;Orlando, FL&nbsp;The Abbey<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 5&nbsp;Tampa, FL&nbsp;Crowbar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 8&nbsp;Houston, TX&nbsp;White Oak Music Hall<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 9&nbsp;San Antonio, TX&nbsp;The Rock Box at Vibes Event Center<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 10&nbsp;Austin, TX&nbsp;Parish (Stage)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 12&nbsp;Albuquerque, NM&nbsp;El Rey Theatre<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">October 15&nbsp;Phoenix, AZ&nbsp;Crescent Ballroom<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Tickets are on-sale now.
