For one night only, the Electric Lady will assist Stromae as a special guest during his Madison Square Garden debut. He will also be noted as the arena’s first French-speaking artist to adorn the stage for the October 1 appearance.

Kicking off on September 14 in A-Town at the Buckhead Theater, the concerts will hit pit stops in the nation’s biggest metropolises such as D.C, Chicago and Detroit as it wraps up in Montreal right before the Madison Square Garden appearance.
