2014's coming to a close and, as ever, still no word on D'Angelo's long, looooong-gestating third album—but that doesn't mean the R&B legend is staying completely dormant: he's just announced a sizable European tour for 2015, dubbed "The Second Coming Tour," and barring any cancellations, this latest flurry of activity is enough to raise hope that, if new music isn't immediately on the way, maybe a U.S. jaunt is in the cards. Check the dates below, and read Associate Editor Matthew Trammell's report from D'Angelo's Red Bull Music Academy interview in NYC earlier this year.
