R&B/soul singer Musiq Soulchild will continue to support his latest gold selling album, "Luvanmusiq," with a bunch of new tour dates through the summer.

Musiq will play a handful of U.S. shows over the next few months, including a July 4 gig at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans. He'll pick up the pace in August, playing nearly a dozen concerts in the eastern half of the country, about half of which are with Chaka Khan.

Musiq Soulchild scored his second No. 1 debut on The Billboard 200 when he dropped "Luvanmusiq" in March 2007. The set, his fourth studio album and first for Atlantic Records, has spawned R&B/hip-hop hits including "Buddy" and "Teachme." He also earned three Grammy nominations at this year's awards ceremony: Best R&B Album, Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for "Buddy," and Best R&B Song for "Teachme."
