Grace VanderWaal will set out on her own headlining tour this summer. She most recently served as opening act on Florence and the Machine’s High As Hope tour.
VanderWaal will launch her 23-date tour on August 10th in Kentucky and wrap in November at the Wonderfront Music & Arts Festival in San Diego. The tour’s name, Ur So Beautiful, comes from a forthcoming single that the 15-year-old will debut on June 28th.
“This song is romantic but it’s also empowering — it can be directed at anything or anyone,” she said in a statement. “It’s also kind of a note to self… a song to boost your confidence. I always try to hide it but then when I’m alone and am looking in my bathroom mirror, I know I’m beautiful. I’m good enough. I hope everyone feels that.”
“Ur So Beautiful” will follow up her February release “Stray,” which was her first new song in nearly a year. She has yet to confirm plans for a follow-up to her 2017 debut album Just the Beginning. Along with a budding music career, VanderWaal is beginning to dip her toes into acting. She will star in Disney’s adaptation of the book Stargirl, which will be released in 2020.
