Raphael Saadiq is expanding his one-man show, "No Bandwidth: One Man, One Night, Three Decades of Hits," into a 22-city tour in the United States, starting on September 7th in Sacramento. The tour will feature Saadiq reflecting on his career, performing original music and covers, and aims to create a magical experience similar to a Broadway show. Saadiq previously performed sold-out shows at notable venues like the Apollo Theater and has also initiated the Raphael Saadiq Vinyl Club for fans to access his music catalog.
"I've always wanted to do a one-man show. I want to challenge myself," Saadiq said in a press statement. "My one-person show has three acts; I will be talking about my career, bringing a couple of instruments to express myself, singing my original music as well as covers of songs I wish I had written, and more. I want it to feel magical and like a Broadway show."
The shows will feature Saadiq looking back at his music with Tony! Toni! Toné!, solo albums, and production work with other artists.
The tour follows sold-out shows at the Apollo Theater in New York City, United Artists Theater in Los Angeles, and Fox Theater in Saddiq's hometown of Oakland.
Earlier this year, Saadiq launched the Raphael Saadiq Vinyl Club, which gives fans a chance to own music from his back catalog vault. This month's selection is the self-released vintage soul album, Ray Ray, from 2004.
