Valerie June is coming back to Rotterdam! On Thursday 04 December, the Grammy-nominated singer returns to the BIRD stage, the very spot where she first cast her spell back in 2017 with her magical blend of folk, soul, gospel, and roots.

Born in Tennessee, shaped by the American South, and fueled by the energy of New York, Valerie June is a one-of-a-kind voice in modern music. Her sound floats somewhere between earth and stardust. Intimate, spiritual, and soul-soaked. Think: Norah Jones meets cosmic blues.

She’s shared stages with legends like Robert Plant and Norah Jones, earned praise from Bob Dylan, and her work has been celebrated by Rolling Stone, NPR, and The New York Times. But live on stage that’s where the real magic happens. That’s where her raw, glowing energy shines through.

Her last show at BIRD felt like a fireside session with a room full of hearts beating in sync. Now This time, she’s back for a special solo concert, with new music and that unmistakable Valerie vibe deeper grooves, bolder soul, and honest storytelling.

This concert is a collaboration between BIRD and LantarenVenster two Rotterdam stages joining forces to bring soulful, genre-blurring music to the city. From jazz and soul to folk and global sounds, we celebrate artists who move hearts and push boundaries.
