Maxwell announces first tour in 6 years
LOS ANGELES (AP) -August 22, 2008 The 35-year-old neo-soul singer, whose smooth voice and good
looks have melted fans since the '90s, announced his first tour in
six years.
The North American tour kicks off in Boston on Oct. 8 and
includes stops in New York City and Los Angeles, according to a
Thursday press release.
The live dates will be a "pre-party tour celebration" for the
singer's upcoming trilogy album "Black Summers' Night," according
to the release.
Maxwell's last album, 2001's seductively funky "Now," followed
on the heels of 1998's "Embrya." It has been 12 years since his
1996 hit debut "Urban Hang Suite" cemented his status as an R&B
sex symbol.
The singer is also sporting a new look, with recent photos of
him on his MySpace site showing off a cleanly shaven noggin instead
of his once signature wild curls.
