JUNO and CCMA-Award winning country singer Brett Kissel will embark
on his "Ice, Snow & 30 Below" Canadian tour, visiting 18 cities this
coming January and February.
The tour begins January 12 in Sault St. Marie, Ontario, and will make
its way through Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick before it wraps
up in Georgetown, PEI, on February 4. The tour also marks Brett's first
headlining performance in Toronto - January 22 at the Danforth Music
Hall. A Western Canada tour will follow later next year.
"Anyone who knows me understands that my favorite place in the world
is on the stage,” says Brett. “Even if it's going to be in the heart of
the Canadian winter, I'm excited to heat up these amazing theaters
across Ontario and the Maritimes and put on an exciting show for my
fans!"
Tickets to this all-ages tour go on sale September 12.
"I know I have fans ranging from kids to grandparents, so it was very
important for to me to select venues that would accommodate our wide
demographic. Anyone who buys a ticket to our show is going to have an
amazing time - and I promise I will help them forget about the cold
outside for the few hours I am onstage!"
Brett will perform at this Sunday's Canadian Country Music
Association Awards show in London, Ontario with special guest Carolyn
Dawn Johnson in what is sure to be a show-stopping emotional duet. Brett
is nominated for five awards, tied for the most of any artist.
"I Didn't Fall In Love With Your Hair" is Brett's fourth single off
his sophomore album, "Pick Me Up." A music video shot last month in
Toronto will be released in the coming days. The song will be serviced
to radio this Friday.
Proceeds from the sale of the song from September 9 to October 28
will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society. In addition,
entrepreneur and philanthropist W. Brett Wilson will match money raised
up to $25,000 from the sale of the song during this period.
Next month, the 2016 Allan Slaight Honour will be awarded to the
country singer from Flat Lake, Alberta at the Canada's Walk of Fame
induction ceremony. The Allan Slaight Honour recognizes young,
inspirational Canadians who have achieved international success in the
music industry. Kissel will be honoured alongside this year’s Walk of
Fame inductees and will also be featured on the televised special. Past
winners include Drake, The Weeknd and Shawn Mendes.
