Reggae artist Romain Virgo has unveiled a series of headlining concerts across the Northeast U.S. to promote his latest album, The Gentle Man. The tour kicks off on June 6 at Toad’s Place in New Haven, Connecticut, followed by consecutive shows at the Crown Hill Theater in Brooklyn on June 7 and 8. The tour will conclude on June 9 at The Ave Live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. “It’s always a joy to share my music with a live audience, especially when they’re hearing certain songs for the first time. So I’m looking forward to creating more memorable experiences with this Gentle Man U.S. tour — something special for my fans, whether it’s their first or tenth Romain Virgo show,” said Romain Virgo.
“The support I felt at my recent Record Store Day meet and greet in Queens, NY was overwhelming, and we’re definitely going to translate that energy back into these shows.”
These must-see performances will feature a seven-piece live band, including rising singers Janeel Mills and Tori Lattore. The shows will be hosted by DJ Buck and Bojangles in New Haven, Platinum Kids on the first night in Brooklyn, Rorystonelove on the second night in Brooklyn, and DJ Young Genna and Solomonic Sound System in Philadelphia.
The U.S. leg of The Gentle Man Tour follows a sold-out, three-show run in Jamaica, where Romain Virgo was joined by surprise guests Protoje, Agent Sasco, Jesse Royal, and Christopher Martin. Later in the summer, the Jamaican artist and his band will take The Gentle Man Tour to Europe, performing at several festivals including Summerjam in Germany and South Facing Festival in England.
His fourth studio album, The Gentle Man, was released on March 1 via VP Records. It was announced with the Masicka-assisted single “Been There Before,” and features tracks like “Good Woman,” “Driver,” and “Switch You On.”
