Known for being a force of nature onstage, Tori Sparks has toured in 24 countries and won over crowds in all of them. Her last three albums were a mix of rock, blues and roots music with flamenco fusion, called “adventurous, pushing the envelope" (Rolling Stone) and “pure art” (Radio3). And on Friday, April 17th, 2026, Tori Sparks released Volume I of songs from her new musical project, Cabinet of Curiosities.
This is the American singer, songwriter, and producer’s eighth full-length album, and her first studio recording since 2017. As you might expect from a project that has been in development for almost a decade in the mind of an artist known for breaking barriers, it's not a traditional album. Cabinet of Curiosities is a multifaceted project, divided into five parts: five “volumes” (or mini-EPs) of four songs each, which together form a fascinating whole. These volumes will released one by one over a period of several months in 2026: April 17th, May 15th, June 12th, September 18th, and October 23rd.
Each pack of songs trends towards a different musical style: blues and gospel, folk, noir country, rock and soul, trip-hop and nu-jazz. Each has its own distinct character and sound. These are distinct elements connected by a common thread; when taken separately, each one is its own small universe.
The album contains a total of 21 new, original songs. The recordings feature collaborations with Francisco Guisado “El Rubio” (guitar), Ramon Vagué (bass), Carlos López (drums), and special guest artists, including gospel singers from the world-renowned Tennessee Mass Choir from Memphis, soul singer Nuri Thunder from the band BigBlack Rhino, and violinist Fats Kaplin, who has collaborated with Jack White, Beck, Elvis Costello, John Prine, others.
Tori Sparks is proud to be endorsed by D'Addario Strings since 2007, and by Thembe Fashions since 2016.
