Black Eyed Peas plot second leg of North American tour
The Black Eyed Peas have added a second leg of North American dates to their long-running world tour in support of last year’s chart-topping studio release, “The E.N.D.”
The summer leg both kicks off and ends in Canada, starting with July 27-28 shows in Toronto, and ending Aug. 23 in Edmonton, Alberta. Highlights include stops in Boston (8/3), Chicago (8/11) and St. Louis, MO (8/14).
Tickets for select shows among the newly added dates go on sale March 13.
On the road, the Peas continue to support their multi-platinum-selling fifth album, “The E.N.D.,” which surfaced last summer.
The Grammy-winning set, which was produced by the group’s own Will.I.Am, topped The Billboard 200 and has spawned four chart-topping singles: “Boom Boom Pow,” “I Gotta Feeling,” “Meet Me Halfway” and “Imma Be,” which the band performed in January at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, and is currently sitting atop Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
The band took home Grammy Awards in three of the six categories for which it was nominated at this year’s awards, including Best Pop Vocal Album for “The E.N.D.,” Best Pop Vocal Performance for “I Gotta Feeling” and Best Short Form Video for “Boom Boom Pow.” The three awards doubled the band’s career haul of Grammy statuettes.
