INTRODUCTION
TO THE NEW BEGINNING TOUR
The
"New beginning" tour lasted 2 years:
early 1995, Tracy Chapman and band toured the US to
"test" new material. When the album came
out, they toured again in the US before undertaking
a world tour on april 96 in Europe until
october 96 in South Africa passing by the USA
and Australia.
Tracy's band was then composed with Andy Stoller
(bass), Glenys Rogers (percussion), Rock
Deadrick (drums), Linda Taylor (guitarist)
and Kiki Ebsen (Keyboard).

On certain venues, before the show there were 3x5
index cards that anyone could fill out with
any forms of expression they chose. Tracy read these
cards to the audience during a break between two songs
from her set.. She went on to urge everyone to express
themselves in some way, shape or form that suits them
best.
In the
New Beginning's artwork were an offer for fans to
get a free packet of seeds if they bring the
coupon to a Tracy Chapman concert from this tour.
