With a new album right around the corner, top-notch hip-hop producer and middling indie rock songwriter RJD2 has announced a massive North American tour. Starting in the new year, the trek will see RJ spend the better part of four months on the road.
The 51-date tour kicks off in Washington, DC on January 9. From there, he'll spend two whole months exploring his United States. Finally, in March, RJ will surface in Canada for shows in Montreal and Toronto.
April will see RJ team up with rapper Busdriver for the final leg of the tour. While there are no Canadian dates to speak of, Vancouver fans should note the totally-drivable show in Bellingham, WA on April 10.
RJD2's fourth album, The Colossus, will be released on January 19 via his newly-minted RJ's Electrical Connections imprint.
