Anita Baker announced a 2023 North American tour, marking the R&B singer’s first tour in 28 years -- just one year after regaining full control of her master recordings. The tour, which marks the 40th anniversary of Baker’s debut album, The Songstress, will kick-off on Feb. 11 in Florida and is scheduled to wrap up in California on Dec. 23.
Baker recently played a sold-out residency at the Venetian in Las Vegas in 2021. She recently ended a multi-year battle with her former label Elektra Records for ownership of her master recordings and finally gained full rights to her music—including No. 1 hits like “Sweet Love,” “Giving You the Best That I Got,” and “Caught Up in the Rapture”—in September of 2021. Baker recently signed with Rhino Records for the relaunch of her music catalog on streaming services.
