D'Angelo Announces 'The Second Coming' European Tour
Everyone's been waiting for more D'Angelo, and it looks like Europe is getting first dibs. It was recently announced that he 40-year-old will set off on The Second Coming tour overseas beginning in Switzerland in February 2015 with 13 dates through March, ending in Brussels, Belgium.
According to a press release, the shows will see D'Angelo and his band The Vanguard "combine many popular hits with new songs and fresh interpretations of covers."
In addition to some random dates recently, D'Angelo is working on the long-awaited follow up to his 14-year-old sophomore album, Voodoo, tentatively titled James River. Earlier this year D'Angelo's manager, Kevin Liles, discussed the new album with Billboard saying "...it's very melodic and there's an influence of all the things he loves: there's James Brown, there's Prince, and everything people grew up loving D'Angelo for, from Brown Sugar to Voodoo. It's a mixture and an evolution of where he is right now."
