West coast hip-hop duo Zion I is currently prepping for their first proper global tour, "True & Livin' World Tour," which will see them hit venues in Japan, the US, Canada, Germany, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the UK.

Fresh off the Cali Comm tour (with Del the Funky Homosapien), and a SXSW appearance, the Oakland's Zion and Amp Live will be performing material from their new album, True & Livin'.

"We've performed around the world before, but we've never had our tour plans so synchronized," said Zion. "This record is on our newly formed label (Live Up Records), so we're doing an international push for this album."

"True & Livin' World Tour" supporting artists will be the Scojourners in Japan, Opio (Hieroglyphics) on West Coast dates, One.Be.Lo on East Coast dates and Roosevelt Franklin throughout Europe.

In related news, Zion I will also appear at the Coachella Valley Music Festival, Sunday May 1, alongside acts such as Roots Manuva, Sage Francis, Weezer, Chemical Brothers and more.
