The artist (born Ben Haggerty), who released his latest solo album, Ben, on Friday (March 3), took to social media on the same day to alert fans to his upcoming string of dates.

“AND WE GOT A USA TOUR TOO!!!! I WASN’T SURE WE WERE GONNA EVER BE ABLE TO DO THIS AGAIN!!! I’VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS MOMENT… WHO’S COMING!?! Leave a comment with what show you want to go to. I feel like giving away some tickets,” Macklemore wrote on Twitter.

The shows kick off on September 17 in Nashville, Tennessee, making stops in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Toronto, Detroit, Phoenix, and more before concluding on October 18 in Los Angeles.

Macklemore, one of only a few artists who boast two or more Diamond-certified singles, will be the cover subject of American Songwriter’s March/April issue. Be on the lookout for that feature story dropping soon.
