Alicia Keys’ New Album Is Coming: Here’s the Cover Art and Release Date
Keys is also hitting the road for Alicia — The World Tour
Alicia Keys has new music on the way! On Monday (Jan. 20), the star announced the release date for her upcoming seventh studio album, simply titled Alicia.
"#ALICIA The Album 3/20," Keys wrote on Instagram alongside what appears to be the project's colorful cover art, which features the singer-songwriter photographed from four different angles against peach, purple and turquoise backdrops.
The announcement comes just days before the star's second annual gig as the host of Sunday's upcoming Grammy Awards (Jan. 26). The self-titled album follows Keys' 2016 LP Here, and was preceded by the Miguel-assisted lead single "Show Me Love" as well as "Time Machine" and the motivational "Underdog."
Keys also dropped the dates for her upcoming Alicia — The World Tour outing, which will find her hitting stages in Europe and North America beginning on June 5 with a show at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland and keeping her on the road through a Sept. 22 show at the Hard Rock Live Arena in Miami.
