Singer-songwriter/actress Janelle Monae just announced her upcoming North American Dirty Computer Tour in support of her third studio album, dropping this Friday.
Dirty Computer is the funk/R&B artist’s first album in five years and is very highly anticipated. The 27-date tour is set to kick-off on June 11 in Seattle, Washington and make stops in major cities like Nashville, Detroit, New York and Miami before wrapping up the shows in her hometown of Atlanta, Georgia on August 4. The soulful R&B duo St. Beauty, who are signed to Monae’s label, will support her on tour.
Monae has been making quite a splash in the media throughout the past few years. She appeared in films “Hidden Figures” and “Moonlight,” both which received Academy Award nominations for Best Picture. She’s toured, given a speech at the Grammy Awards around the theme #TimesUp, and even worked on a narrative film project to go along with her new album. This film is scheduled to air nationwide in select theaters before screenings of “Black Panther.”
Songs “Make Me Feel,” “Django Jane” and “PYNK” have been released from the record so far, as well as the self-empowering tune “I Like That,” which was shared alongside a music video today. The video is a little teaser for the narrative film, or “emotional picture,” that will go along with the album.
Tickets will be available to the public on Wednesday, May 2 and each ticket purchased includes a digital copy of Dirty Computer. Check out the full list of tour dates below.
