Whitters plans first headlining tour

The tour will hit Boston, Chicago, New York and Philadelphia, and will lead to performances at the C2C: Country To Country Festival, Stagecoach Festival and Tortuga Music Festival.

Last week, Hailey Whitters received her first-ever GRAMMY nomination for Song of the Year for "A Beautiful Noise," which was written by Ruby Amanfu, Brandi Carlile, Brandy Clark, Alicia Keys, Hillary Lindsey, Lori McKenna, Linda Perry and Whitters, and performed by Alicia Keys and Brandi Carlile.

"I've been dreaming about one day playing my own headlining tour since the early days of cover bar gigs and graveyard shifts in a 15-passenger van," said Whitters, currently opening for Midland. "It's been a long road coming, and I've been fortunate enough to have folks like Midland, Luke Combs and Maren Morris bring me on their tours and give me 30 minutes to play and introduce myself to their fans in some bucket list venues across the country."

"I'm so excited to get to now play my own headlining set for fans and give back all that they've given me while chasing this dream. They're the reason I get to do this, and I hope to create an experience and a night they won't ever forget. I'm playing some of my favorite cities and looking forward to seeing a lot of familiar faces."

Whitters released her deluxe album "Living the Dream" in February via Pigasus/Songs & Daughters/Big Loud . has rapidly proven to be one of the most interesting voices in country music."
