K.D. Lang returns next year with 'Watershed' moment
K.D. Lang has mapped a month-long tour for early 2008 as she gets ready to release "Watershed," her first album of original material in almost eight years.
With the new album marked for release in early February, the veteran singer/songwriter will kick off her support trek Feb. 21 in Toronto. The tour will cover 23 dates in 18 cities, wrapping in late March with a trifecta of dual-night engagements in Seattle, San Francisco and Portland, OR. All dates are shown below.
Aside from the tour behind "Watershed," Lang will tackle a pair of UK shows in January, as well as a Jan. 26 show in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, as part of lesbian-oriented travel company Olivia's Caribbean Dreams Cruise. The singer's overseas dates can be found at her website.
"Watershed," which Lang recorded in California and self-produced, is the singer's first set of all-new material since 2000's "Invincible Summer." The album, featuring 11 new Lang compositions, hits stores Feb. 5.
Lang's last studio album was 2004's "Hymns of the 49th Parallel," which featured covers of songs originally sung by various natives of the singer's home country of Canada, including material by Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen.
