American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish is embarking on a world tour in support of her third full-length album, "Hit Me Hard & Soft," set for release on May 17.
The LP consists of 10 tracks featuring tracks like “Chihiro”, “Skinny,” “Lunch,” “L’Amour De Ma Vie,” “Blue,” “Wildflower,” and more.
As usual, the album was written by Eilish and her brother and musical collaborator Finneas, who also produced the album.

The Live Nation-produced tour will kick off in September in Quebec and continue through North America until December. In February 2025, Eilish will hit Australia, followed by Europe, the U.K., and Ireland from April to late July.
Eilish is continuing her partnership with environmental nonprofit Reverb on the tour, which will reduce greenhouse gas pollution, decrease single-use plastic waste, support climate action, and update concession offerings to promote and encourage plant-based food options with Support+Feed. A portion of ticket sales in North America will also go toward Reverb’s efforts.

Eilish has recently shared a major update about her much-anticipated album, saying: “So crazy to be writing this right now i’m nervyyyyy & exciteddd. Not doing singles i wanna give it to you all at once. Finneas and i truly could not be more proud of this album and we absolutely can’t wait for you to hear it. Love you love you love you.”
“The album does exactly as the title suggests: hits you hard and soft both lyrically and sonically while bending genres and defying trends along the way. ‘HIT ME HARD AND SOFT’ journeys through a vast and expansive audio landscape, immersing listeners in a full spectrum of emotions. It’s what the multiple Grammy and Academy Award winner does best, continuing to affirm Billie Eilish as the most exciting songwriter of her time.”
"Hit Me Hard and Soft" is the follow-up to the musician’s 2019 debut "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" and her 2021 sophomore effort "Happier Than Ever", both of which topped the Billboard 200 for three weeks.
