Update: Jamie Lidell announces more fall tour dates

Update: Jamie Lidell is listening to his own advice these days.  With the announcement of more fall tour dates (a slew of North American stops and some more evenings opening for Sir Elton), it looks like Mr. Lidell will be taking his little bit of feel good a very long way.  Check the updated version of his touring regimen below to catch the busy bloke in the coming months.

What should one expect from a show that opens with the new soul of neo-soul and closes with glitzy Brit-pop royalty? Classy-good times, no doubt. Mark your calendars, then, because Jamie Lidell will open a handful of shows for Elton John this December, on the heels of an extensive tour.

Lidell (a 4 to Watch alum from the Class of '06) recently released Jim, the follow-up to 2005’s transformative Multiply. Previously, Lidell fit better under the electronica umbrella as member of the late-'90s glitch-pop outfit, Super_Collider.
