Saul Williams to Take 'Volcanic Sunlight' on North American Tour

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Dec 21, 2011

Earlier this year, American alternative hip-hop performer Saul Williams dropped his fourth full-length album, Volcanic Sunlight, but most of us will have to until the new year to catch the slam poet slingin' rhymes onstage on his upcoming tour.

Williams's trip kicks off in Brooklyn on February 17 before hitting up a host of other U.S. cities, but the back half of the tour finds him crossing the U.S./Canada border a couple of times. The first show up north takes place March 14 at Vancouver's Biltmore Cabaret, and the experimental rhymer will wrap the trip up in Toronto and Montreal later that month.
