New York, NY (Top40 Charts) GRAMMY nominated Country singer/songwriter Camannounces her Road to Happiness Tour coming this fall featuring special guest, British singer/songwriter, Lucie Silvas. This will be Cam's biggest headlining tour to date and kicks off on
September 26 at the famed Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN wrapping on October 23rd at the Bluebird Theater in Denver, CO.
The Road to Happiness Tour will follow the same innovative and imaginative energy of her past tours and will also include some of her intimate stories hailing from her sold-out
Spring Listening Room Series Tour. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, July 27th at CamCountry.com. A complete list of dates can be found below.
This past week, Cam released a new song off her forthcoming album coming soon, also called "Road to Happiness". The song was co-written with frequent collaborator and multiple GRAMMY nominee Tyler Johnson and award winning writer Hillary Lindsey, while Johnson produced the track.
Of the track, Cam says, "I've met unhappy successful people and happy 'unsuccessful' people. There's no one road to happiness, it doesn't exist, it's an illusion. Happiness is now and it's up to you to feel it in the moment. This song is me working through all this, and trying to be present and happy in my own way."
Cam is currently on the road supporting
Sam Smith on the first North American leg of his massive The Thrill of it All world tour, and has been garnering praise:
"Country belter Cam's fiery persona is backed up by her rich voice and sterling songwriting, which honors country's past while taking the pro-woman lyrics of elders like Patsy Cline and
Dolly Parton into the 21st century." -
Boston Globe
"Stampeding into her set with drum-kicking hoot Diane, she, too, trafficked in feel-good feels, sparkling and beaming and dishing out life lessons between otherwise sensitive ballads Burning House and just-dropped single The Road to Happiness." - Tampa Bay Times
Coming up, Cam will be performing at the 12th Annual ACM HONORS, an evening dedicated to recognizing the special honorees and off-camera category winners of the 53rd Academy of Country
Music Awards. The event will take place at the Ryman Auditorium on Wednesday, August 22.

About Cam:
California-born singer/songwriter Cam emerged as one of the true breakthrough artists of the past two years. Her international hit, "
Burning House" garnered Cam her first Platinum record, #1 country single and earned her a GRAMMY® Award nomination for Best Country Solo Performance, six nods at the Academy of Country
Music Awards, three at the CMT
Music Awards, two CMA Awards nominations and one at the 2016 American
Music Awards. "
Burning House" is still the most-downloaded song by a female country artist since its release in 2015 and is off Cam's debut album Untamed, which debuted at #2 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart with the year's best first-week album sales by a debut country artist. Produced by GRAMMY-winning Producer of the Year Jeff Bhasker (Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars) and multiple-GRAMMY nominee Tyler Johnson (Harry Styles, Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran), Untamed was met with widespread critical acclaim from The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, PEOPLE, Associated Press, and many others. Since her debut, Cam has appeared on national TV programs including Good Morning America, Today, CBS This Morning, The Voice, The
Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Talk, The
Ellen DeGeneres Show, LIVE with Kelly, The Grammys, CMA Awards, ACM Awards, and The 10th ACM Honors CBS special with Alicia Keys. In addition to sharing the stage with music superstars like Harry Styles,
George Strait and
Tim McGraw & Faith Hill, 2017 also highlighted Cam's prolific songwriting. Now in 2018, Cam returns with a bold new single, "Diane," the lead song off her forthcoming Arista Nashville/RCA Records sophomore album. Joining forces again with her "
Burning House" co-writers, "Diane" is a driving, tempo-rich track that delivers a sonically refreshing tale of love, regret, and commiseration. Less than a month after its release, the song was praised as one of the Best Songs (all-genre) of 2017 by NPR and #3 on the 25 Best Country Songs of 2017 by Rolling Stone Country and made a multi-week residency on Spotify's Viral 50 USA Chart.
About Lucie Silvas:
Lucie Silvas has spent the better part of the past four years touring with the likes of Chris Stapleton,
Little Big Town,
Miranda Lambert,
James Bay and many others. Her critically acclaimed album, Letters To Ghosts, shed light on Silvas breaking out onto her own genre-less style of music as well as highlighting her powerhouse vocals. Now Silvas is on the brink of releasing the highly-anticipated follow-up album, E.G.O., which sees her taking huge steps in branching out even further to her musical roots and influences. From the driving rock n roll momentum of the first single, "Kite," to the retro-soul and depth of "Everything Looks Beautiful," Silvas is ready to take this music to the masses.
