Lenny Kravitz has announced his upcoming Blue Electric Light Las Vegas residency.
The music icon announced on Monday that he will be heading to Sin City later this year for a five-show residency.
The residency, which will take place at the Dolby Live at Park MGM, will kick off on 18 October and wrap up on 26 October.
The shows are in support of Kravitz's forthcoming 12th studio album, Blue Electric Light, which is due for release on Friday. The album will come six years after his 11th studio album, Raise Vibration, which was released in 2018.
Kravitz previously revealed that the new album is about "celebration, life, humanity, sexuality, sensuality, spirituality".
During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in March, the 59-year-old said that the title track came to him in a dream while he was recording music in the Bahamas.
"Well it was actually the last song I recorded in the Bahamas as I was ending the album," he told the host at the time. "I dreamt it the night before, (and then) I went to the studio, cut it and then Craig Ross, my guitarist, said 'You know that's the title of the album.' And I already had a title."
He continued, "And I said, 'Yeah, you're right, that's kind of the right title.'"
The musician will also be supporting the album with a European arena and festival tour, which kicks off in Hamburg, Germany on 23 June.
