(New York, NY) - Legendary singer/songwriter/guitarist Joan Armatrading will soon return to North America for the second leg of her last major world tour.  For the first time in her four decade plus career, Armatrading's "Me Myself I" world tour finds her performing her entire set solo.  The British singer/songwriter/guitarist/instrumentalist, best known for such worldwide hits as "Love And Affection," "Me Myself I," "Drop The Pilot" and many more, performs for nearly two hours per show sharing the highlights of her extensive career, singing, playing guitar and piano.  The set also includes an intimate photo montage, narrated by Armatrading herself, which beautifully captures her career in pictures.

Of the tour Joan Armatrading commented, "I have absolutely loved the audience reaction to my first solo world tour."  The second North American leg of the "Me Myself I" world tour kicks off on September 23rd at the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport, ME and runs through early November.  Please see below for tour dates.

Joan Armatrading's "Me Myself I" world tour has been winning rave reviews from the media globally with The Argus (Brighton, England) declaring, "The veteran performer didn't just take to the stage...she owned it..." and The Stourbridge News (Stourbridge, England) avowing, "Accompanying herself on either guitar or piano, Joan showed what an accomplished musician she is as well as possessing a truly original voice and wonderful songwriting skills."  California's Monterey Herald stated, "The adulation was beyond amazing...She is a woman of substance..." while New York City's Village Voice calledArmatrading, "...gentle and forceful, thoughtful and soaring...", adding, "she knows how to softly and deftly strike a song's emotional core."

After more than four decades of touring, countless Grammy and Brit Award nominations, a BA (Hons) degree in History, seven honorary degrees, and many more personal and professional highlights, it is fair to say Joan Armatrading is a woman of substance. Armatrading's current world tour kicked off in South Africa, 2014. With nearly every show to date a complete sellout, it sees her on the road until the end of 2015 and encompasses Europe, North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and more concerts in South Africa.
