Usher 's North American tour, which was originally due to begin last November, has been rescheduled to kick off in late April and will stretch into July.
Shows are booked at arenas and amphitheaters throughout the U.S., and the itinerary also includes a pair of Canadian dates.
About two weeks before his previously scheduled tour kick-off, Usher dislocated his shoulder while rehearsing and had to undergo surgery to repair his rotator cuff.
Usher is touring in support of last year's "8701" (Arista), which surfaced last August and debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 album chart. The album features the hit singles "U Got It Bad" and "U Remind Me."
