Lauryn Hill gets up close and personal on club tour

Lauryn Hill will perform music from her solo and Fugees repertoire during a six-week club tour of the East Coast, Midwest and Canada.

Hill spent much of 2010 appearing at international festivals and is performing in intimate venues "to see her loyal supporters up close and personal again," she said, in a release. Her band features three keyboardists, three guitarists, three back-up singers, a bassist and a drummer. Hill's career has been spotty since the 1998 release of "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" that earned her five Grammy Awards and has appeared on numerous lists of the best albums of the last 20 years. Her only other solo album was 2002's "MTV Unplugged 2.0."

Hill performed Monday (12/20) in Boston, singing Bob Marley's "Forever Loving Jah," revamped versions of "Lost Ones," "When It Hurts So Bad," "Doo Wop (That Thing)" and straightforward versions of Fugees' numbers "How Many Mics," "Zealots" and "Killing Me Softly."
