For almost four decades, Nicholas Drain Lowe (yes, his middle name really is "Drain"), better known as Nick Lowe, has been dishing up saccharine soaked pop music by the troughload, giving his audiences an insatiable sweet tooth and leaving them wanting more.

So it's probably with much delight that his fans heard about his first tour in three years that kicked off on Sept. 17 in Virginia, promoting his latest CD, At My Age. The singer also plans to make a few guest appearances - one coming Saturday, Sept. 29 on "A Prairie Home Companion" with Garrison Keillor and Wednesday, Oct. 3 on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Also, catch Lowe's Sept. 17 performance on the first night of the tour, recorded for webcast by NPR:
