Alicia Keys’ 2013 Tour On Fire

Alicia Keys will be spending late spring and early summer in Europe, showing off her recently released fifth studio album. The singer/songwriter/record producer says she’s “ready to set U.K. and Europe on fiyah” and she “can’t wait to perform for you all!”

Keys celebrated the Nov. 27 release of Girl On Fire by getting the honor of flipping on the switch to light up NYC’s Empire State Building Monday evening (Nov. 26) with a light show synced to the beat of the album’s title track. The tune was followed by a light show that went along with Keys’ 2010 hit “Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down.”

The Grammy award-winner wrote and produced Girl On Fire in collaboration with Jeff Bhasker, Salaam Remi, Frank Ocean, Emeli Sande and Jamie xx.
