2020 is gearing up to be one of the bigger “anniversary” years in music and Jill Scott is getting an early start on the announcements. The Philly singer is celebrating her debut album turning 2020 and is going on tour to let us all join the celebration.
Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1 officially turns 20 on July 18 but Jill is hitting the road beginning in February of 2020 in Kansas City before wrapping in March in Columbia, South Carolina. Along the way, Jill will make stops in St. Louis, Chicago, Indianapolis, Dallas, Houston and more!
“I’m going to be true to the album setlist. I’ll do every song in the order of the album. My audience should bring their cd covers. Some may know the list by heart,” Scott said in a statement. “I will create musical arrangements for the songs purposed with new energy but keep the integrity of the original songs they love. Expect theatre. Expect incredible musicianship. Expect love.”
