'NSync's JC Chasez goes solo for new album and tour

Following in the footsteps of fellow 'NSync member Justin Timberlake , JC Chasez drops his first solo album in January, and precedes the set with a brief club tour.

Chasez is booked to perform at small venues in Southern California, New York and Boston between Dec. 3 and Dec. 20. Fans can expect to hear material from Chasez's forthcoming solo debut, "Schizophrenic," which is due in stores on Jan. 27.

"The title comes from the different styles and attitudes that are on this album," he said in a statement. "It's gritty, it's noisy, and it is definitely not like anything I've done before."

The set includes the single "Some Girls (Dance with Women)," which features a guest appearance by rapper Dirt McGirt (a.k.a. Ol' Dirty Bastard). The song is scheduled to hit the airwaves on Dec. 1, according to Jive Records, and is currently streaming at Chasez's official website.

Chasez recently shot a video for the track with director Martin Weisz. The bi-coastal production features scenes filmed in Los Angeles and New York.

In addition to the upcoming club shows, Chasez's plans also include an appearance on the Nov. 16 American Music Awards, and the Dec. 10 Billboard Awards.
