TOUR KICKS OFF OCTOBER 14

NEW ALBUM, QUANTUM BABY, OUT AUGUST 16

Today, multi-platinum-certified pop/R&B disruptor singer, songwriter, and dancer Tinashe announced her special contest for her Match My Freak World Tour. For the contest, Tinashe teamed up with SoundCloud, the global artist-first platform that empowers artists and fans to connect and share through music, in a first of its  kind partnership to identify an opening DJ for each upcoming tour stop. Looking for a DJ to match her freak, contestants will head to Tinashe’s SoundCloud profile to complete a submission form and make sure their SoundCloud profile is up to date, showcasing their talent. From there, Tinashe will choose a DJ for each location to open the tour. Read more info about the contest here!

“Tinashe's always embraced SoundCloud to connect with fans and experiment with new sounds, and this first-of-its-kind contest is a natural extension of that energy,” said SoundCloud’s Global Head of Music, Emmy Lovell. “We're excited to build on Tinashe's legacy by shining a spotlight on the next generation of artists on SoundCloud.”

Produced by Live Nation, the run kicks off with the 23-date North American leg on October 14 in Anaheim. The tour will hit major cities including Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Atlanta, and Nashville. See the full North American routing below and stay tuned for more dates in Australia, Europe, UK and Asia to be announced soon! Raveena will join the tour as support for the North American Leg.
