The upcoming dates add to a landmark year for Oladokun, who is currently preparing the highly anticipated follow up to her widely celebrated major label debut, in defense of my own happiness (Amigo Records/Verve Forecast/Republic Records). Since the release, Oladokun has unveiled a handful of new singles including “Sweet Symphony,” her instant-classic duet with Chris Stapleton that Billboard calls “essential listening.”
Additionally, Oladokun performed at the White House this past fall as part of the Respect for Marriage Act signing ceremony and has also been featured on “CBS Saturday Morning,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” “TODAY,” PBS’ “Austin City Limits and NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk (Home) Concert” series. Her music was also included in Loudmouth, the recent Al Sharpton documentary, CBS’ “CSI: Vegas,” NBC’s “This Is Us,” ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy,” ABC’s “Station 19” and HBO’s “And Just Like That” among others.
Widely respected by her peers, Oladokun has collaborated with artists such as Brandi Carlile, Maren Morris, Jason Isbell, Lucie Silvas and Noah Kahan and has joined Morris, Isbell, My Morning Jacket, Pink Sweat$, Leon Bridges and Manchester Orchestra on the road. She’s also performed at several major festivals including Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Hangout, Ohana Festival and Newport Folk Festival.
