Duran Duran Add Tour Dates With Shamir, Shamir Covers "Hungry Like the Wolf"

[DudeAsInCool]

Last month, Duran Duran announced a massive tour in support of their 2015 album Paper Gods. It doesn't start until March, but they're already adding more dates. They've also announced that Shamir will open for eight of the dates. Disco legends Chic, whose leader Nile Rodgers produced Paper Gods, will remain as special guests on the tour, as well. Check out the new dates below.

In addition to supporting Duran Duran, Shamir has covered the band's iconic "Hungry Like the Wolf." It's his second cover of the month, as he recently put his spin on Jewel's "Who Will Save Your Soul." Listen to his Duran Duran take below.

Shamir released his debut album Ratchet last year. Read "The Charmed (and Charming) Life of Shamir Bailey."
