Prince’s “The Revolution” announces summer tour
The Purple Rain-era lineup of Prince’s band The Revolution has extended their spring reunion tour of North America. Kicking things off at Prince’s Minneapolis home/studio/compound Paisley Park on April 21st, the band hits about 25 cities in the US, ending up in Seattle, WA on July 15th.
The Revolution is guitarist Wendy Melvoin, bassist Brown Mark, drummer Bobby Z and keyboardists Matt Fink and Lisa Coleman (appearing with “special guests” Dez Dickerson and André Cymone)
“With profound loss and apocalyptic grief, we, along with the world, mourned Prince upon the news of his passing. After seeing the response outside of First Avenue and around the rest of the world’s monuments, we, as The Revolution – Wendy, Lisa, Brownmark, Dr. Fink, and Bobby Z -‐ have decided to pay tribute to Prince at home in the city of Minneapolis.” – THE REVOLUTION
