Aimee Mann [ tickets ] and Michael Penn [ tickets ] will reprise their co-headlining Acoustic Vaudeville tour beginning in January. The husband-and-wife team of singer-songwriters is currently scheduled to visit five cities in the Eastern U.S.

Mann and Penn began their Acoustic Vaudeville shows with a lengthy Tuesday night residency at the Los Angeles club Largo in 1999. They took the show on the road in January and February of 2000, and have performed together sporadically since then.

Mann--who first gained notoriety as a member of the ‘80s band ‘Til Tuesday--released a new album titled "Bachelor No. 2" in March. The album was the first release on her recently developed Superego record label, which she formed after various record company shake-ups left her shuffling from one label to the next. The album met with critical acclaim, and has been buoyed by similar accolades for her work on last year's "Magnolia" soundtrack, which included her Oscar-nominated song "Save Me.”

Hip-O Records, a re-issue label distributed by Universal, released an album titled “Aimee Mann-The Ultimate Collection” in September. However, Mann voiced her displeasure with the release with an open letter published on her official website.

“Michael Hausman [Mann’s manager] and I have been planning to put out our own collection that I promise will be a lot more "ultimate" than this wretched fraud,” Mann’s letter reads. “Needless to say, there's also a lawsuit in the works. To put out a record that deliberately gives the impression that it's been authorized by me is really the last straw.”

Like Mann, Penn gained notoriety in the '80s (with the track "No Myth"), and quickly became the victim of a label shake-up. His latest album, "MP4 (Days Since a Lost Time Accident),” was released last February by Epic's 57 Records imprint.
