NEW YORK (Top40 Charts/ Warner Bros. Records) -
Chris Isaak and his longtime Silvertone band are about to embark on a 32-city Summer tour across the US beginning July 10th in Council Bluffs, Iowa in support of his new "Mr. Lucky" CD, it was confirmed today by Reprise Records. There will also be some preliminary shows in California in May prior to the start of the big
Chris Isaak Summer Tour. (Full itinerary follows this release). The blue-eyed crooner's legendary shows have earned
Isaak a reputation as one of the most thrilling live performers out there with nightly standing ovations throughout the course of his enormously successful career.
Getting "lucky" has rarely sounded so good as it does on Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Chris Isaak's current CD, "Mr. Lucky," following glowing reviews ("14 gems that showcase his sharp vocal stylings and brand of countrified pop music" BILLBOARD; "Isaak can carry his torch and twang with the best of them, wielding creamy, rootsy melancholy and haunted yearning with effortless authority" 3 & 1/2 stars USA TODAY). His new single from "Mr. Lucky," "You Don't Cry Like I Do," will be coming out June 1st following the Top 5 hit "We Let Her Down".
Isaak has also been busy hosting "The Chris Isaak Hour," an interview series on the Biography (Bio) Channel and has interviewed a wide range of distinguished artists including Stevie Nicks, Smashing Pumpkins, Michael Buble, Cat Stevens, Trisha Yearwood and Jewel.
From the beginning, Chris Isaak has earned his good luck the hard way - by consistently delivering excellent work, both onstage and in the studio on a series of accomplished albums from Silvertone (1985), Chris Isaak (1986), Heart Shaped World (1989), San Francisco Days (1993), Forever Blue (1995) the largely acoustic Baja Sessions (1996), Speak of the Devil (1997), Always Got Tonight (2002), the seasonal-themed Chris Isaak Christmas (2004), the Best of Chris Isaak compilation (2006) and the current Mr. Lucky (2009).
Isaak has teamed up with I Love All Access to provide a variety of VIP ticket packages for the tour including premium seats, meet and greets, photo ops and more.
"I have my dream job and I'm still working," commented Isaak. "You just can't get any 'luckier' than that."
