AVERY ANNA BRINGS ‘BREAKUP OVER BREAKFAST’ TO EUROPEAN STAGES THIS SPRING

Rising pop sensation Avery Anna announces her highly anticipated European tour for March 2025, with stops in the Netherlands, Germany, and the United Kingdom. The tour follows the overwhelming success of her debut album Breakup Over Breakfast and featuring on the viral hit “Indigo” by Sam Barber, which peaked at #33 in the UK’s Top 40 singles chart. 


Since its release in July last year, Breakup Over Breakfast has demonstrated Anna’s exceptional talent as a songwriter. Featuring 17 tracks, all written or co-written by Anna, the album offers a raw and deeply personal look into her emotional world. Standout track, “Make It Look Easy” has been described by Billboard as “rage fuelled rock”, and praised for how Anna’s “ragged edge in her voice tops thrashing drums and sonic thicket of electric guitars that mirror the lyric’s emotional angst”. 
Anna’s music is characterised by remarkable honesty and versatility; from romantic ballads to fiery rock anthems, she effortlessly navigates a spectrum of emotions and sounds. Her upcoming European tour promises to bring that same emotional intensity to the stage, including a return to the C2C stages.
