Tickets for the show go on sale tomorrow (Friday) and are available at the Crash Records website here.
Michael has also released the fourth single from the upcoming album titled ‘Rebel Soul’, which you can hear here.
Michael previously said that the direction of the new record, produced by Danger Mouse, was a desire to make an album that transcends any notion of what is or isn’t deemed “cool”.
He recalls, “We were trying to shoot for something that might have made it onto a Bill Withers album or a Sade album.”
Indeed, Sade is the case in point on this new track, as Michael remembers afternoons as a child in the back of his aunt’s car, “where Diamond Life was rarely out of the tape machine.”
