11x Grammy Award-winner Brandi Carlile will continue her triumphant The Human Tour this fall with newly confirmed stops across North America, including Meadow Brook Amphitheatre on Friday, August 21 at 7 p.m. Special guests for the local date will be I'm With Her. Oakland University Credit Union is the exclusive presenting partner of Meadow Brook Amphitheatre.

The upcoming dates follow the acclaimed first leg of The Human Tour, which included shows at New York's Madison Square Garden (two nights), Los Angeles' Kia Forum and Boston's TD Garden, of which The Boston Herald praised, "Brandi's unmistakable vocal delivery with a towering band, her strange and perfect songs done with all the drama they deserve, her infectious enthusiasm for performing, all combined to prove she belongs in this big place. Even if she can make it feel so small."

In the midst of yet another groundbreaking year, Carlile's renowned new album, Returning To Myself — produced by Carlile, Andrew Watt, Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon — debuted at #7 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart this past fall. Carlile was also recently honored as one of TIME's 2026 Women of the Year, performed a "gorgeous" (Billboard) rendition of "America The Beautiful" at Super Bowl LX, returned to NPR Music's Tiny Desk Concert series and NBC's Saturday Night Live as musical guest for the fourth time, was featured on The Howard Stern Show, NPR's Wild Card with Rachel Martin and The Drew Barrymore Show, and spoke with The New York Times for an in-depth profile.

Carlile is an Oscar-nominated and 11x Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, performer and producer, 2x EMMY-winning composer, lyricist and writer, #1 New York Times Bestselling author and activist, who is known as one of music's most respected voices. Throughout her acclaimed career, Carlile has released eight studio albums including Who Believes in Angels? — the universally acclaimed, Grammy-nominated collaborative album with her childhood hero, Elton John — which debuted at #1 in the U.K. and top 10 in the U.S.

Additionally, Carlile is a renowned producer with recent Grammy-winning projects from Joni Mitchell and Brandy Clark. She also produced and recorded a rendition of Indigo Girls' "Closer To Fine" with her wife, Catherine, which was included on Barbie The Album as well as a version of "Home," which was featured in the final season of Ted Lasso. She received her first Oscar nomination in the Original Song category in January 2025 for "Never Too Late," a Grammy-nominated track written alongside Elton John, Bernie Taupin and Andrew Watt for the Disney+ documentary of the same name.

Beloved by her peers, Carlile has collaborated with artists such as The Highwomen, Soundgarden, Sam Smith, Alicia Keys, Hozier, Noah Kahan, Jacob Collier, P!nk and Dolly Parton.
