ZHU will hit the road for his Neon City Tour this spring across North America, and he announced it in a hilarious way. The enigmatic, Grammy-nominated producer prank called an unsuspecting ticket scalper fan pretending to buy a ticket for a show. While trying to buy a ticket, ZHU asked the fan what the hype is all about and insisted he will only spend $100 if he gets to see the guy's face. Of course, the fan has no idea who he is talking to when the call suddenly ends and opens on a preview of a new song. The clip teases ZHU's first original production since the release of his critically acclaimed Genesis Series project last October. The song will be played in full on tomorrow (Feb. 25) on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 show.

The tour promises brand new production as ZHU will continue to eviscerate genres by fusing seismic electronics with live instrumentation into one very lit show. Even better, he will be taking fellow Mind of a Genius artist Gallant on the road with him, who is no stranger to delivering unreal music. You can buy tickets to ZHU's 18-date tour here.
