This Is Lorelei bring 'The Singer in My Band' home to Warsaw on Thursday

Nate Amos's first year on Matador comes to a Greenpoint stage on Nov 12, the last U.S. stop before the project heads to the UK.

For a project that has spent 2026 on festival lawns and other people's tours, Thursday is a hometown night. This Is Lorelei play Warsaw on Thursday, Nov 12, at 7pm. Tickets are $39.99 through Ticketmaster. Brooklyn is the market This Is Lorelei has played more than any other in our records, and Warsaw's 800-capacity room is a fitting place to close out the American leg of a very big year.

This Is Lorelei is the project of Nate Amos, who is also one half of Water From Your Eyes. In May, Amos signed This Is Lorelei to Matador Records, news covered by Paste and BrooklynVegan, which reported the signing alongside a run of tour dates. In June, Stereogum reported the announcement of the first This Is Lorelei album for the label, *The Singer in My Band*, with the first single "Billy Came Back." Matador set the record for Sept 11, so Thursday's crowd should arrive knowing the new songs.

It comes on the heels of *Box for Buddy, Box for Star*, the 2024 album that put the project on a lot of people's radar, and which got a super deluxe edition this April. Between the two records, This Is Lorelei has been everywhere: Kilby Block Party in Salt Lake City in May, a Newport Folk booking for July, and select dates supporting Bleachers.

Thursday is a hometown night, and a fitting place to close out the American leg of a very big year.

The fall run has been working its way around the Northeast and Midwest in recent weeks: Chicago on Oct 27, Cleveland on Oct 28, Boston on Nov 2, Washington, D.C. on Nov 4 and Philadelphia on Nov 5. After Brooklyn, the project crosses the Atlantic for a UK tour that, per the announcement, ends at Electric Brixton in London on Nov 26. That makes Warsaw the last chance to catch these songs on home turf for a while.

That is the stake for Brooklyn readers. A local act that played smaller rooms on the way up now comes back with a Matador record, a summer of festivals, and the confidence of a band that has been on the road for months. Shows like this, where a scene gets to see one of its own return a step further along, tend to have their own charge.

A few practical notes. The show starts at 7pm, an early start for a Thursday, so plan to get to Greenpoint straight from work if you can. Tickets are $39.99 and linked from this page; check before you go, since homecoming shows can sell through in the last week.

Amos has spent the year taking This Is Lorelei to new places. Thursday is when he brings it back to where it has played most.
