Ava - who recently celebrated the release of Diamonds & Dancefloors with a sold-out headline event at Los Angeles, CA's famed Hollywood Forever Cemetery - is currently set to embark on her biggest world tour to date, including stops in the UK, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Spain, and Finland.
North American dates include a top-billed performance at Pittsburgh, PA's Pride on the Shore (June 3) as well as a headline concert at Milwaukee, WI's BMO Pavilion (July 1). Additional dates will be announced.
Ava further marked Diamonds & Dancefloors with a stellar performance on CNN's New Year's Eve Live, followed by an appearance on The
Kelly Clarkson Show as well as an exclusive Rolling Stone feature interview, which raved, "Max wanted to pair her soul-crushing lyrics with upbeat, dance-ready melodies...Her vocals shine on 'Ghost' as she sings about 'feeling haunted' by her ex over sparkling synth lines.
On the disco-drenched 'Hold Up, Wait a Minute,' Max questions her partner's connection with a past love. And her most emotional song on the project, 'One of Us,' started as a ballad but transformed into an empowering anthem about coming to terms with the end of a relationship."
