Alicia Keys has begun assembling dates for a spring arena tour to support her just-released studio set, "The Element of Freedom."
The Grammy-winning R&B/soul star dropped her fourth studio album earlier this week. "The Element of Freedom," which Keys co-produced alongside a bevy of well-known hit-makers, follows 2007's triple-platinum "As I Am."
"Doesn't Mean Anything," the first single from "The Element of Freedom," was released to radio in September. A second single, "Try Sleeping with a Broken Heart," hit in November. The album also features a collaboration with Beyonce called "Put It In a Love Song."
Earlier this month, Keys streamed her World AIDS Day/Keep a Child Alive benefit concert at New York's Nokia Theatre live from her YouTube channel.
These dates are confirmed with others to be added later:
Wed 03/03/10 Rosemont, IL Allstate Arena
