Background On March 24, 2025, Cain announced her second studio album, Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You, via social media. At the same time, she revealed that she would be embarking on an accompanying concert tour, the Willoughby Tucker Forever Tour. She announced that the band 9million would be the supporting artist for all shows, following the band opening for her at two shows in the Blood Stained Blonde Tour. This tour follows The Childish Behaviour Tour (2024), which served to promote her 2022 album Preacher's Daughter and tease then-upcoming songs from her 2025 project Perverts.

Alterations During the second Seattle show, Cain performed "Misuse Oh" in place of "A Knock at the Door".

She plays this variation of the setlist every other night. During the Troutdale show, Cain performed the same Alterations as Seattle Night 2, However "Tempest" was cut short due to a medical issue in the crowd, and "American Teenager" was cut.

During the Boston show, Cain was joined by Jae Matthews of Boy Harsher during her performance of "Vacillator". During the second Toronto show, Cain did not play "Waco, Texas", "Thoroughfare", or "Crush". During the fourth and fifth London show, Cain performed "Sun Bleached Flies" as the closing song of the set. During the first Paris show, Cain left the stage mid-way through "Nettles". The show was then announced to be cancelled. From the second Paris show onwards, Cain has replaced "Waco, Texas" on the setlist with "Sun Bleached Flies". During the Vienna show, Cain played "Family Tree" during the encore, in place of "A House in Nebraska". During the Warsaw show, Cain played "Ptolemaea" as the first song of the encore.
