Developing story first seen 3 hours ago
Kylie Cantrall has announced her first-ever headlining concert tour, named after her new EP "Valley Girl Problems", which will visit 15 cities across North America this autumn. The announcement builds on the momentum of the EP's release and marks a significant step for the singer-actress, who has previously performed live as part of an ensemble tour but is now fronting her own show for the first time.
The Valley Girl Problems Tour begins on 25 September in Minneapolis and takes in Chicago, New York, Atlanta and San Francisco, before concluding with a hometown date in Los Angeles on 22 October. The nine-track EP, produced by Tricky Stewart with songwriting input from Tayla Parx, notched up 2.5 million US on-demand streams in its first week, and was accompanied by a music video for "Closet". Cantrall is best known for playing Red in Disney's Descendants franchise, having toured with the Descendants/Zombies: Worlds Collide Tour and starred in the recent Descendants: Wicked Wonderland, whose soundtrack topped the Kid Albums chart.
