Brooklyn via Memphis songstress LOLO is busying herself this year. She's just been announced as the support for brilliant UK singer John Newman's already sold-out tour starting next week and following through February. A perfect match for Newman's funky and soulful music, LOLO is following her supporting dates with her own headlining tour through March.
The Island Records signee just released her video for "Gangsters," another cut off Weapon for Saturday. Produced by Dr. Dre affiliate Mark Batson, the jazzy single will be out on iTunes on March 10. It's an instantly appealing record, finding the New York-based singer/songwriter confident and at ease in the realm of soulful pop. Watch the video below.
