For the first time ever in music­al his­tory, US R&B icons Joe, Brandy and Dru Hill will share the UK stage to per­form an exclus­ive three city con­cert tour.

Kick­ing off its rare UK tour on Fri­day 27th Septem­ber 2019 at the Even­tim Apollo in Ham­mer­smith, Lon­don, the R&B vet­er­ans will per­form live over the week­end on Sat­urday 28thSeptem­ber 2019 at the O2 Academy in Birm­ing­ham fol­lowed by its clos­ing show on Sunday 29th Septem­ber 2019 at the Manchester Academy in Manchester.

The R&B croon­er and Grammy nom­in­ated song­writer, Joe, is def­in­itely one of the favour­ites for diehard UK R&B fans.

Enter­ing the R&B and New Jack Swing era in the early ‘90’s, Joe’s up-tempo and soul hit­ting hits from his debut album ‘Everything’ in 1993 and fol­low-up album, ‘All That I Am’ in 1997; plus, his most suc­cess­ful three times plat­in­um selling inter­na­tion­al album ‘My Name is Joe’ in 2000, earned him his pos­i­tion as one of the Kings of R&B.

Reign­ing the charts with solo suc­cess and hit col­lab­or­a­tions such as ‘Thank God I Found You’ fea­tur­ing Mari­ah Carey and Nas, ‘Still Not A Play­er’ fea­tur­ing the late great Big Pun, ‘Ride Wit U’ fea­tur­ing G‑Unit, ‘Where You At’ fea­tur­ing Papoose and remixes/features with Kelly Row­land, Fantas­ia, Shaggy and Gucci Mane; plus Joe’s joint single with 50 Cent on ‘Big Rich Town’ for the theme track of the pop­u­lar US crime drama show ‘Power’ extends Joe’s rel­ev­ance over 25 years in the music industry.

With 13 stu­dio albums and more than 15 mil­lion records sold, Joe has undeni­ably stayed true to his craft pro­du­cing time­less R&B clas­sics such as, ‘All The Things (Your Man Won’t Do’), Stut­ter’, ‘I Wanna Know’, Let’s Stay Home Tonight’ and If I Was Your Man’.

Return­ing to the UK stage for the first time in three years, Grammy, MTV and MOBO Award win­ning singer/songwriter Brandy, is one of the most suc­cess­ful inter­na­tion­al female R&B artists of the ‘90’s. Burst­ing onto the scenes in 1994 with her Bill­board No.1 break­through self- titled album and hit debut single, ‘I Wanna Be Down’; R&B’s new­comer Brandy swarmed the charts selling over six mil­lion cop­ies world­wide and chart­ing the top 5 pos­i­tion on the UK charts.

The song­stress’ fol­low-up five times plat­in­um selling album ‘Nev­er Say Nev­er’, a mix­ture of pop and R&B bal­lads, released in the midst of her bud­ding act­ing career on the hit show ‘Moe­sha’ in 1998, hit the charts selling over 16 mil­lion cop­ies and scor­ing a stag­ger­ing top 20 chart pos­i­tion in 12 coun­tries world­wide. Reign­ing supreme with eight hit single releases such as ‘The Boy Is Mine’ fea­tur­ing sing­er Mon­ica, ‘Top of the World’ fea­tur­ing rap­per Ma$e, ‘Have You Ever?’, ‘Angel in Dis­guise’ with backup vocals from R&B legend Joe, ‘Almost Doesn’t Count’, ‘You Don’t Know Me (Like U Used To)’, ‘(Everything I Do) I Do It For You’ a remake of rock sing­er Bry­an Adams’ hit song and ‘Nev­er Say Nev­er’ rock­eted Brandy into inter­na­tion­al star­dom.

Releas­ing a fur­ther four more suc­cess­fully selling albums with hit col­lab­or­a­tions world­wide -‘Full Moon’ (2002), ‘Afro­dis­i­ac’ (2004), ‘Human’ (2008) and ‘Two Elev­en’ (2012), Brandy has released some unfor­get­table hits such as, ‘What About Us?’, ‘Talk About Our Love’ writ­ten and fea­tur­ing Kanye West, ‘Afro­dis­i­ac’ and ‘Put It Down’ fea­tur­ing Chris Brown.

The names Sis­qo, Nokio, Tao, Smoke E. Dig­glera and Digit­al Black mak­ing up the multi- plat­in­um selling group Dru Hill def­in­itely need no intro­duc­tion to UK fans! Known for their soul, hip hop and gos­pel enthused sound, Dru Hill took the charts by storm with five top 10 singles -‘Tell Me’, ‘In My bed’, ‘Nev­er Make A Prom­ise’ and ‘5 Steps’ off their debut self-titled album ‘Dru Hill’. The group’s fol­low up album ‘Enter the Dru’ fea­tured their most suc­cess­ful inter­na­tion­al song to date with ‘How Deep Is Your Love’, which also appeared on the soundtrack to the 1998 box office hit film, ‘Rush Hour’.

With lead vocal­ist, Sis­qo, ven­tur­ing off for a more com­mer­cial R&B solo career, the triple threat artist released his num­ber one hit records ‘Incom­plete’ and the quin­tuple plat­in­um selling single‘Thong Song’. The group con­tin­ued to go from strength to strength with a total of four chart top­ping albums, nine top 10 singles includ­ing two hit fea­tures on ‘Big Bad Mamma’ with Foxy Brown and the ‘Wild Wild West’ with Will Smith plus their upcom­ing fifth stu­dio album ‘The 2ndCom­ing’.

It’s time to cel­eb­rate 25+ years of legendary hits from the kings and queen of R&B and Hip-Hop Soul this Septem­ber!
