Prince Announces UK Arena Dates With 3rdEyeGirl

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Prince will be treating his loyal subjects across the Atlantic pond to a four show UK arena tour with his power trio 3rdEyeGirl, perhaps in celebration of his recent reconciliation with Warner Brothers, inking a licensing deal with the industry giant just a few weeks ago. The Purple One's label troubles should be no secret to any of his disciples at this point, having released singles on several imprints just this year.

Its been a long road back to home base for the ultraviolet sage o' funk, but if his most recent drop "The Breakdown" is any inclination as to what we can expect, then a return to true form seems to be brewing in the Paisley estate.You can get a full round-up of Prince's tumultuous relationship with labels over at Billboard. And for a little eye candy, peep the surprisingly purple-less Spanish villa that he just let loose on the market. We'll have more on the Purple One's whereabouts soon, but if you happen to be one of those fortunate enough to be in the UK for this short little excursion he's setting out on, get your refresh button ready. Tickets go on sale this Friday May 2nd via Ticketmaster. Peep the dates below.
