Life or DeathD’Angelo promised us that he’d be releasing a new album to follow up 2000′s ‘Voodoo.’ And while we’re still waiting for this one, the neo-soul crooner has announced that he will be hitting the road in 2015.
Kicking off on Feb. 11, he’ll be taking his show to Europe and will bring him to 13 cities. Unfortunately, U.S. fans will have to wait a little longer as he is currently focusing on his energies in that area.
D’Angelo won’t be going alone. The singer will be leading a new generation of the Vanguard, a collective of musicians he mentioned at a Red Bull Music Academy talk in the spring. Members include bassist Pino Palladino, guitarists Jesse Johnson and Isaiah Sharkey, keyboardist Cleo ‘Pookie’ Sample and drummer John Blackwell.
“Despite the increasing popularity of sequencers, auto-tune, backing tracks, and lip synching, D’Angelo and his band The Vanguard perform every note live,” a press release stated.
While fans might be surprised by his new physique, we’re sure that D’Angelo will be putting a great set. Check out the dates below to find out what European cities D’Angelo will be visiting.
