The tour will support her brand-new album Tiger Suit, which will be released by Virgin Records on October 5th, 2010.
Recorded in January at Berlin's world-famous Hansa Studios, Tiger Suit heralds the beginning of a new musical adventure for Tunstall.
Organic instrumentation is blended with dance-friendly textures, the results of which she has dubbed "Nature Techno" to encapsulate the album's collision of raw, upfront rootsiness and sleek electronic textures.
KT will perform the album's first single, "Fade Like A Shadow," October 5th on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
The single was released to all digital retailers on August 10th and is already Top 20 at Triple A radio.
In addition, Tunstall's performance on NPR's World Café program will air on Friday, October 1st, a Yahoo! Maximum Performance will run in early October, and a live session for CBS/Last.FM's Summer Concert Series will be posted on September 9th.
Tiger Suit was produced by Jim Abbiss, known for his work with Arctic Monkeys, Adele, Kasabian, Editors, and many more.
KT Tunstall co-wrote several tracks with A-list songwriter/producers Linda Perry and Greg Kurstin, as well as her long-time collaborators Martin Terefe and Jimmy Hogarth, both of whom contributed to Tunstall's previous albums, 2007's Top 10 Drastic Fantastic and its predecessor, 2006's platinum-seller Eye To The Telescope.
