Caitlyn Smith Plots Headlining 2018 Starfire Tour
Roots pop singer-songwriter Caitlyn Smith has revealed plans for her first headlining tour, as the powerhouse vocalist embarks on a wide-ranging string of club dates this spring.
Named the Starfire Tour in honor of her debut album, Smith’s headlining trek will begin on April 5th in Northampton, Massachusetts, and is set to wrap on May 10th with a show at Nashville’s Mercy Lounge. Along the way she’ll make stops in New York City and her hometown of Cannon Falls, Minnesota, plus a previously announced appearance on public radio’s Live From Here With Chris Thile.
The tour follows the January release of Smith’s Starfire LP, which came after she spent several years writing songs for the likes of Garth Brooks, Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, Lady Antebellum, Meghan Trainor and James Bay. She was named one of Rolling Stone Country’s 10 New Country Artists You Need to Know in 2016.
The Starfire Tour will also feature pop singer-songwriter Andrea Davidson as Smith’s opening act. Tickets go on sale to the general public February 23rd.
