Estelle announces live UK dates

Our finest soul and hip-hop export Estelle just announced a four-stop UK tour this summer.

Estelle announces live UK gig dates June 2008

Since John Legend's pal Estelle moved to America, she's gone from strength to strength. She's currently playing live at venues across the states, but all this working across the pond means Britain doesn't get much live Estelle action. Luckily for us, she just announced a string of June tour dates in London, Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham.

Estelle will play live tracks from her new album 'Shine', which went straight into the top ten. The album includes a stellar cast list of guests: Swizz Beats (Gwen Stefani, Beyonce), Will.i.am Gnarls Barkley’s Cee Lo, John Legend and of course Kanye West.

Tour Dates:

Sunday 8th June, Manchester, Ritz – Whitworth Street West

Monday 9th June, Glasgow, ABC – 300 Sauchiehall St

Tuesday 10th June, Birmingham, Custard Factory – Gibbs Street

Thursday 12th June, London, Shepherds Bush Empire

Manchester / Birmingham / London: 0844 576 5483 (24hrs) / www.livenation.co.uk

Glasgow: 08444 999 990 / www.gigsinscotland.com
