Singer/songwriter and activist Casey McQuillen is once again taking Europe by storm! The rising star just wrapped a second consecutive European Tour with British sensation, James Morrison, following an initial smash hit tour earlier this year. Casey has now returned to the UK for a five-city headlining tour from October 4-8 and fans can catch her incredible live show in Edinburgh, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Liverpool, Leicester, and London. Tickets are available thru Casey’s website.
The tour will feature songs from McQuillen’s latest album, “Skinny,” which includes the hit single, In & Out. Performed as a duet with Jon McLaughlin, the song debuted on MTV and has been featured on major playlists and has been spotlighted by the likes of Apple Music and Amazon Music, as well featured on Sirius XM’s The Pulse. The album dropped in April of this year and has earned acclaim from critics and fans alike for its courageous tackling of body positivity issues. Fans can expect to hear other hits, as well, such as the first single released from the album, Skinny, which is deeply personal for Casey as it relates to her own struggles with self-image.
Casey returns to the US in mid-October to relaunch her wildly popular “You Matter” Tour at various schools across the country. The interactive, anti-bullying concert series has been recognized by the United Nations Foundation and GLAAD and featured on The Kelly Clarkson Show. As a recognized spokesperson for bullying prevention, Casey founded the “You Matter” tour, which she’s performed at over 150 middle and high schools in the US and Europe.
“I had such an amazing time touring Europe twice this year with my friend, James Morrison, and being able to share my music with all the amazing fans” Explained McQuillen. “Also having the opportunity to play shows in Great Britain before returning home to Boston to relaunch the “You Matter” Tour is a dream come true.”
Casey McQuillen first came to the public’s attention as a contestant on Season 13 of “American Idol.” As a touring artist, Casey has headlined sold out shows in New York and Boston, and performed alongside such incredible acts such as Stephen Kellogg, Eric Hutchinson, and David Ryan Harris.
