Where to buy last-minute tickets, dates, prices
SZA’s 2022 album “SOS” just tied Taylor Swift’s “Folklore” for the most weeks a female artist’s record has stayed at number one on the Billboard charts with eight.
Riding that wave of momentum, the R&B star’s highly-anticipated, nationwide “SOS Tour” will kick off on Tuesday, Feb. 21 at Columbus, OH’s Value City Arena.
Midway through the run, the “Kill Bill” singer will stop into New York City’s Madison Square Garden for back-to-back nights on Saturday, March 4 and Sunday, March 5.
At the time of publication, tickets are still available for all 19 of the 33-year-old’s concert dates but they aren’t particularly cheap.

SZA “SOS” album
In addition to its commercial success, the 23-song “SOS” has proven to be a hit with critics as well.
Rolling Stone said the record “delivers sharp barbs and juicy revelations” in a four-star review.
“SZA’s long, ambitious, luxurious new album solidifies her position as a generational talent,” raves Pitchfork. They summed up that sentiment calling her “otherworldly, but you just might know someone a little like her, too.”
If you want to brush up on the record before you see her live, you can stream “SOS” here.
SZA opening act
At each of her 19 shows, SZA will be joined by rising star Omar Apollo.
Not one to be put in a box, Apollo’s sound mixes R&B, soul, Latin music, and bedroom pop to create a wholly original sound.
Last time we wrote about Apolllo, we recommended his biggest single “Evergreen” (You Didn’t Deserve Me At All.” This time, we’d like to put the deceptively simple “En El Ovido” on your radar. With lyrics en Espanol and a hypnotic guitar strum, it’s been stuck in our heads all day.
You can stream all three of Apollo’s albums here.
