Two of pop music's one-name stars, Sia and Miguel, are pairing up for a fall tour that will land Oct. 13 at Target Center. Tickets go on sale Saturday at 10 a.m. for $35-$125 via AXS.com, the arena box office or 1-888-9-AXS-TIX.

Her first full tour in five years and her first arena headlining trek ever, Sia's so-called Nostalgic for the Present Tour follows the relatively sizable buzz behind her seventh album, "This Is Acting," which landed the hit "Cheap Thrills." The Australian singer/songwriter/producer is known for her wild videos and TV appearances and thus should have plenty of Lady Gaga-like visual gimmickry lined up for the tour.

Miguel himself is something of a visual wonder. The Prince-like Californian R&B/rock singer of "Adorn" fame earned an ecstatic reception from the crowd at his State Theatre concert last summer and previously made a strong impressions opening for Drake at Target Center in 2013.

A third act, London-based electro-pop duo AlunaGeorge, will open the Oct. 13 show.
