Ville Valo's new solo album, "Neon Noir", arrived on January 13 via Heartagram Records and is being distributed by UMG/Spinefarm. Last April, Valo released the first single from "Neon Noir", a song called "Loveletting", which marked his first new music in over two years, following the release of the three-track "Gothica Fennica Vol. 1" EP, also released under the VV moniker, in March 2020. VV's headline tour will make it's way across Europe and North America throughout 2023. Commencing in his home town of Helsinki, Finland, the extensive run of shows hits the U.K. in March before heading to North America in April.
