Jill Scott is coming to a city and country near you this Summer and Fall.
The three-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and cultural icon is stepping on the global stage. On Monday (March 9), the beloved “Jilly from Philly” officially announced 36 dates for her To Whom This May Concern World Tour. The tour celebrates her long-awaited album of the same name, which she released on February 13.
“Welp. My heart is glowing. Yesss-,” Scott said in her tour announcement post on Instagram.
Jill Scott’s sixth studio album blends her signature soul, poetry, and storytelling with a bold lineup of collaborators that bridges that gap between generations of hip-hop and R&B.
The project features fellow Philadelphia native Tierra Whack, Too $hort, JID, Ab-Soul and more. The album’s standout single “Pressha” has already climbed to No. 1 at R&B radio.
Fans can expect the upcoming tour to mirror the album’s energy.
