Curtis Grimes announces first UK tour for June

US Country singer-songwriter Curtis Grimes will make head over to the UK this June for his first tour on this side of the pond.

Grimes will perform in London, Manchester and Scotland, with more dates to be announced. The tour comes hot-on-the-heels of Grimes’ recent single Born to Die, which became his latest number 1 on the Texas radio chart last month.

In his own words: “Iā€™m very excited to announce that I will be doing my very first UK Tour this June. This is something we have been working towards and itā€™s going to feel good to play some country music overseas. Looking forward to seeing you there!”

In 2016 Grimes picked up critical acclaim for his album Undeniably Country. The album includes fan-favourite From Where I’m Standing, which was written by Thomas Rhett, Chris Janson, and Jaron Boyer.

The album also included Right About Now co-written by Grimes with his producer Trent Willmon (Little Big Town). The track has had almost 1 mllion plays on Spotify, making it one of the top five most streamed Texas/Red Dirt singles on the platform.
