Anderson .Paak Announces New Album, Headlining Tour with Thundercat, Earl Sweatshirt, Noname, More

Anderson .Paak has announced a new LP titled Ventura, out April 12 via Aftermath and executive produced by Dr. Dre. The news is accompanied by the announcement of a North American headlining tour, which will feature a host of talented openers including Thundercat, Earl Sweatshirt, Noname, Mac DeMarco and Jessie Reyez.

“Growing up in Oxnard gave me the grit and the church to find this voice of mine,” .Paak explains of the forthcoming Oxnard follow-up. “One town over I went further and found my depth. The duality of each place inspired me greatly and from that I made two albums at the exact same time but held one back because that would have been too many songs to perform live for you all! I like ending things on an even number so welcome to Ventura.”
