15-time Grammy Award winning artist Alicia Keys has announced a limited number of UK and Ireland live dates this summer.

Announcing the tour on Twitter with a video, Keys can be seen saying “if I score this strike, I’m going on tour.” She hands her phone to a friend, and then proceeds to knock down ten pins at her local bowling alley.
