(New York, NY) – SWV (Sisters With Voices), one of the most successful R&B groups of the ‘90s, continue to touch fans with the announcement of their addition to the Fresh Music Festival Tour. Starting memorial day weekend SWV will join K-Ci & JoJo, Guy, and Keith Sweat on the multi-city tour, which will run through August 10th. The group will also headline spot dates before the tour to support the release of “I Missed Us,” the brand new studio album being released April 17, 2012 on eOne Music / Mass Appeal Entertainment.
SWV’s first single, “Co-Sign”, which can be purchased here, is already topp 15 at both the BDS and Mediabase Urban AC charts and continues to grow. The group just completed a video for “Co-Sign,” which can be viewed here.
SWV – Coko, Lelee and Taj – released its debut album “It’s About Time” in 1992. The album went multi-platinum and spawned a string of top ten R&B hits including “I’m So Into You, “Right Here,” “Downtown,” “Weak” and “You’re Always On My Mind.” The group’s sophomore effort, “New Beginning,” went double platinum, while the trio’s third album, “Release Some Tension” went platinum.
