Steve Lacy Announces ‘Give You the World’ North American 2022 Tour Dates
Steve Lacy has announced a North American tour on Tuesday (Aug. 2) in support of his critically acclaimed sophomore album Gemini Rights.
The trek — titled the Give You the World tour — will see Lacy making a total of 27 stops across North America beginning on Oct. 2 at Denver’s Gothic Theatre, and making stops in Chicago, New York, Toronto, Portland, Seattle and more before concluding on Nov. 11 at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.
“It’s time…GIVE YOU THE WORLD TOUR,” the two-time Grammy nominee wrote on Instagram, sharing the tour’s official poster.
The tour news comes on the heels of Lacy’s recent Billboard chart successes. Following the July 15 release of Gemini Rights, the album reached No. 7 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart, and went No. 1 on the Top Alternative Albums, Top Rock Albums and Top Rock & Alternative Albums charts, as well as No. 3 Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart. Meanwhile, the album’s second single, “Bad Habit,” has climbed to No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, earning Lacy his first crossover hit.
Lacy gained recognition as the guitarist of the R&B group The Internet. In 2017, Lacy released his debut EP, a song-series, titled Steve Lacy’s Demo.
His debut album, Apollo XXI, was released in May 2019. The album earned him a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards.
Along with releasing Gemini Rights, this year, Lacy has made contributions to Brent Faiyaz‘s sophomore album WASTELAND (“Gravity”) also being featured on new Ravyn Lenae album Hypnos (“Skin Tight.”)
In an interview with Vulture, Lacy revealed that his production on Mac Miller‘s 2018 song “Jet Fuel” was originally intended for Kendrick Lamar‘s 2017 album DAMN.
