Fleetwood Mac singer/guitarist Lindsey Buckingham (tickets | music) will mount a tour in October to back the upcoming release of his first solo album in 14 years.
Buckingham will kick off his tour Oct. 6 in Atlanta, three days after the release of "Under the Skin." The 22-city trek will run through mid-November.

Fans who pre-order Buckingham's new album through his website will be given first shot at purchasing tickets for the upcoming shows.

"Under the Skin," scheduled to hit store shelves Oct. 3, is Buckingham's fourth solo album and first since 1992's "Out of the Cradle."

In a recent interview with USA Today, Buckingham described the arrangements on the new album as "kind of a reduction. There are basically no drums, very little bass. On a musical level, I've been trying to distill things."

Buckingham reunited with his old Fleetwood Mac bandmates for 2003's "Say You Will," the band's first studio effort since 1995's "Time," and its first with Buckingham aboard since 1987's "Tango in the Night."
