Ahead of the September 14th release of his solo debut, Brandon Flowers has mapped out five US dates. Set to begin in his hometown of Las Vegas on August 15th, the engagements will mark the Killers frontman’s first ever solo performances and will likely serve as a warm-up ahead of a more extensive tour in support of the forthcoming Flamingo. Other cities on Flower’s itinerary include Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and New York.

A special pre-sale for members of The Killers fanclub will begin starting Wednesday, July 21st. Tickets will be on sale to the general public on Friday, July 23rd via Ticketmaster.com.
