Billboard.com hosts the official hub for the Evolution Tour, which launches today at MBevolutiontour.com, and has produced a custom video series featuring the three headliners each recreating one of their songs. The hub includes a wealth of Evolution Tour information: details about all nine tour stops, how to win tickets to the shows and curated artist spotlights, as well as post-concert coverage.
Alabama Shakes will headline the tour’s July 24 kickoff at New York’s Terminal 5. That show will also feature a special DJ set by The Roots’ Questlove.
In addition to music at each of the nine stops — New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. — attendees will also have the chance to walk the black carpet, view tour art by Mr. Brainwash, and more.
