50th Grammy Celebration Concert Tour, Vic Theatre, Chicago.
Legend’s third full-length, Evolver, recently reached No. 1 on the R&B charts and he’s planning to bring its tunes to Northrop Auditorium in Minneapolis Nov. 19, hitting East Coast markets through Dec. 13, when he plays Durham, N.C. All dates will include special guest Raphael Saadiq.
The 2009 gigs go west, starting in Oakland, Calif., Jan. 12 and end in Atlantic City Feb. 7. All dates are supported by Estelle, the first artist signed to Legend’s HomeSchool Records and who sings on Evolver track “No Other Love.”
Estelle’s “American Boy” recently topped the U.K. charts.
