(4/16/02, 12 p.m. ET) -- Musiq and Goodie Mob frontman Cee-Lo will join forces for a North American tour starting next month. Both artists will be on the road in support of new albums: Musiq releases his sophomore set, Juslisen, on May 7, while Cee-Lo issues his debut solo collection, Cee-Lo Green And His Perfect Imperfections, on April 23.
The joint tour will officially kick off May 4 in Boston. However, Cee-Lo will appear at the Music Midtown Festival in Atlanta on May 3, the same day Musiq will play the Webster Theatre in Hartford, Connecticut.
Cee-Lo told LAUNCH last month that he was working on putting his band together for the tour. "I did a showcase in New York with a band of guys, a couple of the musicians who worked on the album with me--you know, worked real closely with me--and I knew they would, of course, they're familiar with the music, (and) they would be able to pick up on the music live. But I don't know--again, it's not a set band. Everybody is not locked in, like, I don't know where God is gonna lead me as far as that is concerned, you know? But you know, I'm still kinda practicing optimism as far as that is concerned."
