Indie singer/songwriter Santogold has announced dates for her first-ever headlining tour as she continues to build support behind her self-titled debut album, which hit stores in April.

The Philadelphia-based performer (whose real name is Santi White, although she records and performs under the Santogold moniker) will kick off the Goldrush Tour Sept. 19 in New York City. The 16-city outing will feature the singer backed by a full live band and a DJ, and will run through mid-October. Details are below.

Santogold did some of her own production work on the album, and also got help from a variety of other producers, including Diplo and Freq Nasty. The critically acclaimed record cracked The Billboard 200 chart at No. 74, and reached the No. 2 slot on the magazine's Top Electronic Albums chart.

Several streaming cuts from the album (including singles "Lights Out" and "L.E.S. Artistes") can be heard on Santogold's MySpace page.

"I hope that I help break down boundaries and genre classifications," Santogold told MTV News earlier this year. "If I'm a black woman I'm just about singing R&B. I guess with those producers I'm supposed to be making club music."

Santogold began her recording career as lead singer of Philly punk band Stiffed, which issued a pair of albums, 2003's "Sex Sells" and 2005's "Burned Again," both of them produced by Bad Brains bassist Darryl Jenifer. The band also included John Hill, who is credited as a co-producer on Santogold's debut album.
