Maxwell, Jill Scott touring together this summer
Maxwell is flying high on his recent Grammy wins and keeping the momentum alive with a new tour starting in May with the lovely and talented Jill Scott. It’s one of the most anticipated pairings of the summer!
So far, sixteen dates are on the schedule, starting in Cleveland at Quicken Loans Arena on May 21st and finishing up at Madison Square Garden in NYC on June 25th. Other key stops include Chicago (5/25), Los Angeles (6/5), Atlanta (6/12), Washington, DC (6/18), and Philadelphia (6/19). More dates are expected to be added.
Maxwell tickets guarantee a phenomenal show, and they serve a philanthropic purpose, as well. According to Maxwell’s website, one dollar from each ticket purchased will be donated to Haitian earthquake relief efforts via a number of different organizations: Clinton Foundation, Yele Haiti, Red Cross, and UNICEF. In addition, another dollar will go to the Blues Babe Foundation, a non-profit founded by Jill Scott to assist students in underserved communities to promote leadership and academic excellence.
Jill Scott has been been a busy woman in advance of this tour. The singer, actress and fashion designer, she has a new album coming out this summer entitled “The Light Of The Sun”, and is also prepping for the release of two movies, a cartoon series and a line of intimate apparel.
