LOS ANGELES - Barbra Streisand will launch a nine-city tour this summer.
Her manager said Monday the entertainer will appear at arenas across the country, performing songs from her six-decade career.
Marty Erlichman also said Streisand is releasing a new album later this year and she'll include tracks from it in her summer run.
The tour plans one-night stops in Los Angeles; Las Vegas; San Jose, California; Chicago; Boston; Philadelphia; Toronto; and Washington, D.C. A two-night affair is set for Brooklyn, New York, the 74-year-old singer's hometown.
Tickets go on sale May 25 and will include a copy of Streisand's new album.
Streisand previously toured in 2000, 2006 and 2012.
