Good news for Raphael Saadiq fans: the famed R&B singer/songwriter is going on tour and is bringing his beloved Tony! Toni! Toné along for the ride.
For the first time in 25 years, Saadiq will reunite with Tony! Toni! Toné and the tour is sure to give fans what they want to see and hear. On Tuesday, June 20, Saadiq announced the "Raphael Saadiq Revisits Tony! Toni! Toné!, the Just Me & You Tour".
The tour kicks off in Birmingham, Alabama, on September 21 at the BJCC Concert Hall and tours major markets nationwide, including New York City, Chicago, Nashville, and Los Angeles. It will wrap up in Tony! Toni! Toné's hometown at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland, California, on November 14 and The Masonic in San Francisco on November 17.
Produced by Live Nation Urban, this tour marks a momentous homecoming for Saadiq, his brother D'Wayne Wiggins and Timothy Christian Riley as they reunite and perform as Tony! Toni! Toné! for the first time in nearly 25 years.
The trio will treat fans to a number of their classic R&B smashes such as "Feels Good," "Anniversary," and "It Never Rains," plus brand-new material for R&B fans. Saadiq will also delve into his long library of music and perform tracks from his acclaimed solo albums, singles from his short-lived but beloved R&B supergroup Lucy Pearl, as well as hits he wrote for artists like D'Angelo, Daniel Caesar, Brent Faiyaz, Solange, and Beyoncé.
"I've always wanted to put my family back together," Saadiq said in a statement. "Playing with the Tonys again is a thank you to the fans, the Super Tonians, for supporting all my musical efforts. Without those who were with us from Day One, where would I be? But the main reason is that my father, Charlie Wiggins, would've wanted it this way–to see me, D'Wayne, and Tim playing together again."
