Just yesterday Janelle Monáe lit up the stage at the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire – performing a number of hits including ‘Tightrope’ and ‘Cold War’. It seems the rising star can’t get enough of the UK, as she’s confirmed a UK tour for early next year. The ‘Tightrope’ singer will be dancing, singing and tightropin’ across dates in February and March. This will be great news for her fans who didn’t get to see her yesterday, as the show sold out in hours.
Earlier this month Monáe was nominated for ‘Best Contemporary R&B Album’ for her second album ‘The Arch Android’. Janelle Monáe is definitely a Pride favourite and we’re excited to see what more will come out of this young lady in 2011.
See below for full 2011 dates:
- February 24 – Bristol, O2 Academy
- February 25 – Birmingham, HMV Institute
- February 26 – Glasgow, O2 Academy
- February 28 – Manchester, Academy 1
- March 1 – London, Roundhouse
