Announcing the Doorway to the Force Tour

Hip-hop collective the Force is broadening its reach. In the first week of October, the group will tour as a single entity. And while out-of-town shows have been common for many of the artists on this particular roster, this marks a new step in a coordinated effort by the group.

The full touring lineup is somewhat surprising, with relative newcomers Whiteout and RT-FaQ earning spots alongside familiar names like Nato Caliph and Tech Supreme. The rest of the touring group is: L-Gifted, Rockwell Knuckles, Tef Poe, Black Spade and DJ Needles.

The tour starts with a kickoff show at the Gramophone on October 1st and goes to Chicago, Indianapolis, Columbus and Detroit. A full schedule is below.
