Yusuf/Cat Stevens has announced live events in the UK and North America to promote his new memoir, Cat On The Road To Findout.
Stevens will visit Cambridge, Bristol, Birmingham, London, Manchester, Dublin and Glasgow between September 6 and 22, before heading to North America, calling in Philadelphia, Boston, Toronto, New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles throughout October.
Each show on the tour, billed as Cat On The Road To Findout - An Evening Of Tales, Tunes, And Other Mysteries, will feature Stevens in conversation about his new book, which documents his rise from folk legend to pop artist, his conversion to Islam, and a subsequent retreat from the public eye. There will also be some unplugged performances of songs from his discography. He said:
"Having passed through the exhaustingly complex maze of everyday material life, ascending the dizzying heights of wealth, recognition, and artistic achievements, I think I’ve got a few things to share. Keeping an open mind was part of the nature I instinctively maintained as a creative songwriter. Nothing was off-bounds. Music was a way of discovering my purpose within the universe. I just kept on exploring, reading, and learning more, ignoring myths and warnings and crossing dangerous-looking bridges into the vast ranges of philosophies and through the veils of the spiritual unknown.
"Now I have written a book which explains what I’ve learned and the stories along the way. That doesn’t make me a teacher, but more of a potential specimen for those who are searching and pursuing happiness on all sides of the divide. Believe me, folks, it’s out there!"
The book will be published by Constable in the UK on September 18, before its release via Genesis Publications in North America on October 7.
Tickets for all dates go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (May 23). The tour will follow Stevens' special guest slot at Neil Young's BST Hyde Park show in London on July 11. Tickets for that show are on sale now.
