MCCARTNEY & BAND ON THE RUN

Paul McCartney has confirmed the first five dates of his new Freshen Up Tour that will follow the release of his new studio album, Egypt Station, on 9/7 on Capitol Records.

The U.S. leg of Freshen Up begins 5/27 at PNC Arena in Raleigh, N.C., his first stop there since 2002. He will make his first-ever appearance at BSW Arena in Greenville, S.C. Tickets will go on sale to the public on 7/7; presale starts Tuesday.

To promote the new album, McCartney will be on The Howard Stern Show on SiriusXM on Wednesday and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on 9/6.

The initial dates:

5/27 Raleigh, N.C., PNC Arena 5/30 Greenville, S.C. BSW Arena 6/1 Lexington, Ky., Rupp Arena 6/6 Madison, Wis., Kohl Center 6/11 Moline, Ill., TaxSlayer Center
