WILMINGTON — The “Come to My Window” singer-songwriter will be returning to Wilmington in September 2024.
Melissa Etheridge last played in town at Wilson Center in 2021 (see setlist here). She will return to Cape Fear Community College’s 1,500-seat venue on Sept. 15; tickets go on sale Friday, April 11.
Etheridge is embarking on her I’m Not Broken Tour, which includes appearances by North Carolina folk darlings the Avett Brothers, as well as Jewel and the Indigo Girls. The bands will not join her at the Wilson Center, as she plays through her catalog of music, including “Bring Me Some Water,” “No Souvenirs,” and “Ain’t It Heavy,” the latter for which she scored a 1992 Grammy.
Aside from continuously writing and performing original music, Etheridge also started the Etheridge Foundation in 2020 to support scientific research for new treatments in opioid use disorder.
It began after her son, Beckett, passed away from opioid addiction. The nonprofit approaches treatment to address root causes of opioid abuse for better solutions that can heal opioid use disorder.
Tickets go on sale to the Wilson Center members at 10 a.m. on Thursday, April 11, and to the general public on Friday, April 12.
