— -- Sting and Peter Gabriel are teaming up for a summer tour.

The month-long trek, dubbed “Rock Paper Scissors,” will launch in Columbus, Ohio, June 21. It will conclude a little over a month later, in Edmonton, Canada.

Sting and Gabriel will perform both separately and together at the shows. Sting says in a statement, “I’m very happy that we’re taking the chance to experiment this way. I think people will be intrigued, I certainly am.”
