Corinne Bailey Rae Extends Tour

This one-of-a-kind benefit festival has a goal of raising $1 Million to heal and strengthen children facing life-threatening challenges, including violence, illness, and extreme poverty. Bailey Rae, who was recently nominated for a BET Award, will also appear at numerous international festivals over the summer, including the U.K.'s Glastonbury (6/25 & 26), Hard Rock Calling with Stevie Wonder (6/26) and T In The Park (7/11) festivals, the North Sea Jazz Festival in Holland (7/9) and the Fuji Rock Show in Japan (7/30). (See below for her North American itinerary.)

"Rae was sublime, proving yet again why she's one of the best live performers around today," said laweekly.com in a review of her sold-out show at Los Angeles' Vibiana earlier this year. "It was so powerful that it felt gauche to applaud her heartache," said The Boston Globe in a recent concert review while the New York Post observed: "you'd have to have been made of stone not to have felt the heartbreak in her lyrics and voice." "With a delicate balance of hope, heartache and humor, British singer-songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae soared through a soulful performance," said the Seattle Post Globe.

The tour marks her second North American trek since the release of The Sea, which debuted in the Top 10 of The Billboard 200 and elicited widespread critical acclaim.
