Janelle Monáe Announces North American Tour in 2023

Janelle Monáe will embark on a North American tour in support of her next LP, The Age of Pleasure, not long after its release. The Age of Pleasure Tour will begin on August 30 in Seattle, Washington, and will go through 26 U.S. and Canadian cities before concluding on October 18 in Inglewood, California. During her tour, Monáe will make stops in Portland, Minneapolis, Chicago, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Houston, and other cities. 

The Age of Pleasure, Monáe's follow-up to her 2018 album Dirty Computer, will be released on June 9 through Atlantic. The 14-track album contains "Float" (with Seun Kuti and Egypt 80) and "Lipstick Lover." Monáe and Alan Ferguson co-directed the music video for the latter, which was released earlier this month.
