Pop culture provocateur Janelle Monáe brings her Age of Pleasure tour to Houston this fall
Janelle Monáe is bringing her Age of Pleasure tour to Houston.
Janelle Monáe's upcoming Age of Pleasure album is already making headlines with her latest single (and music video) "Lipstick Lover." Her Houston fans won't have to wait long after the album's release (June 9, via Atlantic Records) to watch it come to life on stage.
The critically acclaimed and award-winning singer and actress will bring her Age of Pleasure Tour across North America later this year, with a 26-city lineup kicking off on August 30 at WAMU Theater in Seattle.
She'll hit Houston as part of a three-city Texas stop, playing Bayou Music Center on October 10. She will play Dallas the day before (October 9 at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory) and Austin's Moody Ampitheater the day after Houston on October 11.
Known worldwide for her inimitable style and visionary sound, Monáe is an eight time Grammy Award-nominated singer, songwriter, producer, performer, and fashion icon. According to a release, she promises to light up your body, soul, and all of your senses with an unforgettable performance featuring songs off her latest album and classic hits from her discography.
Tickets for the tour go on sale Thursday, June 1, starting with a Verizon presale at 10 am local time; the exclusive presale via Verizon Up gives customers access to purchase presale tickets for select shows until Tuesday, June 6, at 10 pm. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Wednesday, June 7 at 10 am on Ticketmaster.
