JAMIE LIDELL ANNOUNCES NORTH AMERICAN TOUR DATES | Gears Up For Elton John Opening Dates

Jamie Lidell will be kicking off a brief North American tour at Austin City Limits on September 26th and continuing with dates through October. Lidell has been touring almost nonstop since the April release of Jim and he will be following these dates opening for Elton John in Europe. Jamie will be keeping his full band for all dates – including sax, guitar, drums, and keys. Anyone who has witnessed the band-backed live shows of late can attest to the additional layers they bring to Jamie’s already rowdy and mesmerizing performances. After the recent Lollapalooza set, Pitchfork asked, “Can somebody please make this man hugely famous, like, now?”

Praise for Jim:

“A stunner of a blue-eyed British soul masterwork that evokes the organic grit, soul, and warmth of your favorite Stax and Motown records.” – Newsweek

“[Jim] retains the the river-deep-mountain-high baritone and rolling horns of yore, and tracks like “Another Day” and “Green Light” are near-impeccable time capsules.” – Entertainment Weekly

“Jim is proof that Lidell is an artist who will grow – not fade – with time.” – XLR8R
