Sting and Shaggy announce UK tour for 2019: Live gigs announced after Grammys win

Sting and Shaggy have announced a UK tour together — including a London gig.

The duo, who released the collaborative album 44/876 in April last year, will play the Roundhouse in Chalk Farm this May.

Other dates in Newcastle, Manchester and Birmingham have also been scheduled as part of the tour.

The album, which saw the legendary Police bassist Sting collaborate with Jamaican artist Shaggy for the first time, won the Grammy award for Best Reggae Album in 2019. It was also a top 10 hit in the UK charts — neither artist had achieved such a feat in over 15 years.
