Lionel Richie, one of the most successful artists of the ’80s, has just started a monthlong tour dubbed “All The Hits All Night Long” that’s currently scheduled to run through October 18. For five of the shows, Richie has tapped New Orleans funksters Dumpstaphunk as special guests to open those performances.

Dumpstaphunk and Richie will first pair up next Tuesday at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and then a week from today at Chastain Park Amphitheatre in Atlanta. Ivan Neville and Co. will continue their support duties for Lionel on October 12 at The Woodlands in Houston, October 17 at HP Pavilion in San Jose, CA and finally at the iconic Hollywood Bowl on October 18. Tickets are available through LionelRichie.com.
