Tickets for the new dates go on sale Friday February 11th
Drake White is continuing to expand his touring schedule for 2022, announcing the next leg of his THE OPTIMYSTIC TOUR today (2/8). The run of shows will begin on April 1 with support from Kasey Tyndall on all dates.
Starting with a concert in Portland, ME on April 1, the next leg of THE OPTIMYSTIC TOUR will bring White to 20 cities including St. Louis, MO, Cincinnati, OH and Nashville as well as festivals, ending with a show in Jackson, TN on May 21.
White first kicked off his headline THE OPTIMYSTIC TOUR in September 2021, traveling the country to bring his glass half full mentality to fans. That set of shows was White’s first tour since suffering a stroke on stage in August 2019, and he hasn’t slowed his live slate down since. On February 16, he will join Whiskey Myers on their WHISKEY MYERS IS A COMIN’ TOUR as support through late March.
THE OPTIMYSTIC TOUR’s upcoming shows will allow White even more chances to bring his new music to fans. The Alabama native is preparing to release his second studio album, THE OPTIMYSTIC, on March 11, which shares the singer’s inspirational journey over the past few years as he recovered from his stroke and learned to walk again. The project is available for pre-order and pre-save and fans who pre-order will receive the title track instantly.
