Wipe those tears away, Cry Babies.
Starting May 10, artsy, high-concept pop star Melanie Martinez — who performs as her alter ego Cry Baby onstage — is kicking off her ‘Trilogy Tour’ at Seattle, WA’s Climate Pledge Arena.
Midway through the 35-concert nationwide tour, the 29-year-old “Play Date” singer and Queens native will drop into NYC’s Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, June 5 and Thursday, June 6.
At all shows, fans will likely be treated to tracks from Martinez’s three albums — 2015’s “Cry Baby,” 2019’s “K-12” and 2023’s “Portals” — hence, ‘The Trilogy Tour.’
And if you want to see her ambitious stage show live, last-minute tickets are available for all upcoming shows.
Some are shockingly cheap, too.
At the time of publication, our team found tickets going for as low as $26 before fees on Vivid Seats.
When you factor in that she’ll be joined by high-profile special guests Men I Trust, Beach Bunny and Sofia Isella on select dates, it’s easy to see how much of a steal catching the ‘Trilogy Tour’ live would be for any Cry Baby.

Melanie Martinez new music
“Portals,” Martinez’s third studio album, hit shelves on March 31, 2023.
Made up of 13 tracks, the record features Cry Baby’s — who’s reborn as a “pink-skinned, four-eyed fairy creature that’s stuck between Earth and the afterlife” according to Rolling Stone — signature breathy voice against trippy soundscapes.
Think Lana Del Rey meets creepy “Alice In Wonderland.”
After a few listens, our staff fell in love with the lush “VOID,” the pitter-patter of “FAERIE SOIRÉE” and the bounce of the xylophone heavy “SPIDER WEB.”
Mostly though, we’re bumping the album’s final song, the ultra-catchy “WOMB” on repeat.
In the event you haven’t listened yet, you can check out “Portals” here.
Melanie Martinez special guests

To make sure you’re familiar with their work, we’ve listed each artist’s most streamed song on Spotify below.
Men I Trust: “Show Me How”
Beach Bunny: “Prom Queen”
Sofia Isella: “Hot Gum”
Melanie Martinez controversy
In 2017, the alt-pop star was accused of sexual assault and rape by her friend Timothy Heller over Twitter.
The following day, Martinez responded to the allegations saying they “horrified and saddened” her, and that Heller “never said no to what [they] chose to do together.”
“I know now that assault happens this way all the time,” Heller told Newsweek. “I loved her even after it happened, and I had this sick need to protect her, which I’ve learned is very common for victims of assault, especially those hurt by their family or friends.”
A month after, Martinez dropped “Piggyback” on Soundcloud to respond to Heller’s claims. This year, Martinez’s feisty, sharp “BATTLE OF THE LARYNX,” on “Portals” addresses the allegations once again.
