Corinne Bailey Rae Heads Out On North American Tour

Corinne Bailey Rae is kicking off her first North American tour in three years, and the Grammy winner is using many of the shows as an opportunity to give back. The first show of the tour is a benefit concert for KCRW, a public radio station based in Santa Monica, Calif. The April dates in Seattle and Portland will donate proceeds to RED, benefitting the Global Fund, an organization that finances the fight against AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Bailey Rae will also play some dates on the Lilith Fair tour. Check out the full list of dates below.
