Touring with her full band, Kelis will perform tracks from her new album, Food, which drops April 22 on Ninja Tune Records.
A cookbook author as well as a singer, Kelis made plenty of new fans when she appeared at SXSW where her food truck served up dishes named after tracks on the new album such as “Jerk Ribs.”
But you don’t have to wait until April 22 to listen to Kelis’ new album. It’s streaming right now as part of NPR’s First Listen series. Just click here.
