Jc Chasez To 'Jam' With Bt, Launch Solo Club Tour

JC Chasez will perform "The Force of Gravity" with renowned DJ, artist, and producer BT live for the very first time at the Grammy Foundation "Jam Night" benefit at the House of Blues Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California tomorrow (Saturday, November 15th). The duet is the second single from BT's latest album Emotional Technology. The benefit will be hosted by Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland. Other confirmed performers for the evening include George Clinton, Uncle Kracker, Jason Mraz, Don Was, Chaka Khan, Sheila E., Sophie B. Hawkins, Patti Austin, Jimmy Jam, Randy Jackson, Siedah Garrett, and Kenny Aronoff, among others.

The two organizations are bringing together the musicians for one night to raise awareness about the need for arts in public education. Proceeds from the event will go to the P.S. Arts and the Grammy Foundation.

In related news, the *NSYNC singer-turned-solo-artist has announced five December club dates in support of the impending release of his debut solo album Schizophrenic on January 27.

BT, who collaborated with JC Chasez on Schizophrenic, told us that JC's album is quite different than his bandmate Justin Timberlake's solo debut: "It's just a fun party record. It reminds me of that N.E.R.D. stuff. Like, whereas, you know, Justin's done the incredible R&B singer thing... JC just made a kick-ass party record. It's a really great party record."

Chasez recently shot the video for the first single "Some Girls (Dance With Women)" in both Los Angeles and New York with director Martin Weisz. Dirt McGirt (aka Ol' Dirty Bastard) joins Chasez for the remix of "Some Girls (Dance With Women)."

Chasez's upcoming appearances include The American Music Awards on November 16th and The Billboard Awards December 10th.

Tickets for the JC's club dates will be going on sale this weekend.

JC Chasez's club dates (subject to change):
December 3 - San Diego, CA - Spreckels
December 4 - Anaheim, CA - House of Blues
December 5 - Los Angeles, CA - House of Blues
December 19 - New York, NY - Irving Plaza
December 20 - Boston, MA - Avalon
