Shabazz Palaces Announce North American And European Tour Dates

Palaceer Lazaro and Zimbabwe' Tendai Maraire are embarking on a European and North American tour with dates alongside Flying Lotus.

Shabazz Palaces, the experimental hip-hop outfit comprised of Ishmael Butler (aka Palaceer Lazaro) and Zimbabwe's Tendai 'Baba' Maraire, are embarking on an extensive European and North American tour in support of last year's Lese Majesty LP. The tour includes a Los Angeles show with TV On The Radio and some European dates with Flying Lotus.
