Dido on three-concert NZ tour

Top-selling pop star Dido will perform in New Zealand next month.

She will play in Auckland on November 17, Christchurch on November 20 and Wellington on November 22.

The British singer-songwriter's debut album No Angel was the second biggest selling album in New Zealand in 2001 and the biggest selling album in Britain the same year.

Her second album Life for Rent was the biggest selling album in Britain last year and has been a big seller here.

Dido began her career with British dance band Faithless, who perform in NZ this week. Her profile soared after her song 'Thank you' was sampled by hip-hop star Eminem.
