Word gets around: Gossip announces North American tour
Gossip (formerly The Gossip) is hitting the road in late September for a 13-city North American tour that concludes with a performance at San Francisco’s Treasure Island festival. The Beth Ditto-fronted three-piece is touring to promote its fifth album, A Joyful Noise, the first single off which, "Perfect World,” is currently holding down the No. 8 spot on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club charts. For those across the pond, Gossip will also be at the UK’s V Festival later this August.
