New York, NY (Top40 Charts) LIZZIE SIDER, 16-year old rising country artist will be bringing her "NOBODY HAS THE POWER TO RUIN YOUR DAY Bully Prevention Assembly Tour through the New York City area from October 6-15. The tour, which has already hit California, Florida and Texas, will coincide with the month's
National Bully Prevention activities, and includes visits with at least one school in each of New York City's five boroughs.
Lizzie has already met with more than 250 schools, connecting with more than 100,000 students.
During the assemblies,
Lizzie encourages kids to help prevent bullying, as she recounts her own personal journey as a young student who was ridiculed and teased. She will also perform her original song "Butterfly," which
Lizzie co-wrote about her experience, and how she overcame the teasing. Her goal is to help kids as a positive role model, having risen above her own ridicule, to pursue a career in music.
With this tour,
Lizzie has forthcoming appearances on Entertainment
Tonight and The Better Show, and has previously been featured on
Access Hollywood, Billboard, Hallmark's Home & Family, TIME for Kids, Nashville's Crook & Chase and Emotional Mojo. She was also named by the Country
Music Association as an "Artist to Watch in 2013." Lizzie, who splits her time between Boca Raton, FL and Nashville, TN, recently participated in her sophomore CMA Fest week, with her own booth and live performances.
Lizzie is currently working on an EP of new material for release this fall, produced by ACM award winner
James Stroud, who has generated more than 130 career #1 hit singles. Both "
Butterfly" and Lizzie's follow-up single, "I Love You That Much," charted in the Top 40 on MusicRow. The video for "I Love You That Much" was directed by award-winning Steven Goldmann, whose past credits include Alan Jackson,
Martina McBride and Shania Twain.
