Sam Smith Announces Thrill of it All 2018 Tour
Sam Smith has announced that he’ll be hitting the road next year for his first ever arena tour.
The UK run will kick off on March 20 in Sheffield, travel across the UK and conclude with two dates on April 6 and 7 at London’s O2 Arena. On April 19 he will be performing in Stockholm as a start of his European run, and after visiting all major Europe cities, this run will end on May 18 in Lisbon. The North American run is scheduled to start on June 18 in Toronto and end in Calgary on September 13 after hitting 39 cities in North America. Tickets for all venues can be purchased here.
This extensive 63-date-tour comes in support of is long anticipated second album “The Thrill of it All” which will come out on November 3, three years after his debut album in 2014“In the Lonely Hour”, featuring number one singles “Stay With Me” and “Money On My Mind”
This extensive tour comes after an intimate string of shows Sam held last month in New York, Berlin, London and Los Angeles to tease the audience with his new music.
This Grammy Award-winning singer has recently released a new single “Pray” as he appeared as a musical quest on “Saturday Night Live” last weekend in order to get fans hyped for the upcoming tour.
“Pray” is the second single from his new album after the release of “Too Good at Goodbyes”. ‘’Too Good at Goodbyes’’ debuted as No1 one in the UK and became the top of the Vodafone Big Top 40 as soon as it was released. He collaborated with Timberland on this album so we can’t wait to hear the mix of styles he went for this time.
Besides Timberland, Malay, Jason “Poo Bear” Boyd, Stargate worked on the album and Jimmy Napes, Smith’s longtime collaborator, co-produced it. If judging from the first song, a classic, recognizable, stuttering Timberland beat in combination with gospel choir backing Sam’s singing, we can surely expect a paradise for our ears.
The year 2017 has definitely been a huge breaking point for the singer because not only did he finish the album he’s been preparing for a long time, but he also went public with his relationship with 13 Reasons Why star, Brandon Flynn.
