Singer JJ Lin kicks off new world tour in Shanghai

Get your lighters (or phone flashlight) out, as singer-songwriter JJ Lin gears up for his new concert tour starting in Shanghai on March 17.

Announced on January 21, the 36-year-old Singaporean will kick off his Sanctuary World Tour at the Mercedes-Benz Arena before moving on to other stops in China, as well as Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

The name of Lin's tour comes from the title of the first track on his latest album "Message In A Bottle," which was released last year. He currently has 13 albums to his name, and is known for his hits including Twilight, River South, and She Says.

Lin's music was also recognized at the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan, where he is based. He won Best Male Mandopop Performer for his 10th album "Stories Untold" in 2014, and the same award in 2016 for his 12th record "From M.E. to Myself."

Lin's Shanghai show will start at 7.30pm and tickets run from ¥380 to ¥1,680, which can be purchased from ypiao.com.
