Charli XCX, Bleachers announce joint tour

NEW YORK, April 22 (UPI) -- Charli XCX and Bleachers will headline a joint tour this summer.

The 22-year-old English singer and New York-based indie pop act announced the news in a press release this week.

"I love Jack," Charli XCX said of Bleachers singer Jack Antonoff. "I love what he does with pop music, how he makes every song feel like a movie. This tour is gonna be cool and weird and fabulous and I really can't wait."

"I love Charli," Antonoff lauded in kind. "I love what she does with pop music, how she makes it bizarre. The two of us do totally different things but occupy a similar space -- that's what I loved about the idea to tour together. It makes sense in the fact that it doesn't make sense."
