Ellie Goulding is set to go on tour in 2012. The concert schedule will consist of over 30 shows throughout the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Spain and Norway. More confirmed dates nearing in the future. The English Indie pop singer/guitarist and songwriter will be supporting her 1st studio album ‘Lights’ which was released in the UK in early March. The new album peaked at #1 on the UK Albums Chart.

It’s an album about leaving home, and it works best when the contrast between the folk singer and the pop production chimes with the tensions between the pull of home and the allure of the city. “Guns and Horses” may be the best opening invitation for travel since “Two Divided by Zero” kicked off the Pet Shop Boys’ Please: “Let’s join forces, we’ve got our guns and horses….” It builds from spare acoustics to urgent trance pop– “I left my house, left my clothes, door widen open, heaven knows, but you’re so worth it, you are…”– concluding with a desperate a cappella coda, and a brief breathless chuckle at her casual audacity.
