JAKARTA - NIKI announced a massive world tour to support its second album, Nicole.

The singer who composed the Indonesian-born song and artist 88rising took to social media to deliver the news on May 15 yesterday.

He will complete his tour with his first series of major shows in London and Europe in October.

NIKI's second album, Nicole, received four-star reviews from NME's Khyne Palumar, who wrote: "In Nicole, my voice is reconnected with the roots of his folk-pop, throwing away a series of writers together and Moonchild's intelligent pop pop. Instead, he reproduced songs written in his teens, embracing raw recognition and being verylevant.

Speaking to NME after releasing Nicole, NIKI guided us through his first experience, including the first time he realized he wanted to be a musician, the first song he wrote, his first job, and more.

A live recording, titled Live at the Wiltern, has also been digitally released, and features favorite songs for fans of Keeping Tabs, High School in Jakarta, Indigo, and Every Summertime live.
