Kate Voegele Hits the Road for a 30-City Headlining Tour

THE SINGER/ SONGWRITER WILL MAKE STOPS ACROSS THE COUNTRY IN SUPPORT OF HER LATEST ALBUM A FINE MESS

NEW YORK, Oct. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Singer/Songwriter Kate Voegele hits the road for a new set of dates in support of her sophomore offering, A Fine Mess, her latest and highest charting album to date. The tour kicks off October 7, 2009 at the House of Blues in her hometown of Cleveland, OH. The 30-city trek hits major cities like Boston (10/14), Washington, DC (10/16), Memphis, TN (10/20), Austin, TX (10/26), and Chicago, IL (11/15).

The singer, known for her rocking live shows, will be performing her old hits as well as songs from her new album, A Fine Mess.

"I'm just so excited to get back out on the road," said the singer, "I love being able to get on stage and connect with my fans. Meeting everyone face to face and bringing the music directly to my fans is really the most special thing."

A Fine Mess, released in May, follows Voegele's first full-length set, Don't Look Away. The new album debuted at #10 it's first week on the Top Current Albums Soundscan Chart and landed at #2 on iTunes overall and #1 on iTunes Pop album spots, making this Kate's highest charting album to date. Entertainment Weekly lauded, "A Fine Mess makes a deeper impression... Leadoff single ''99 Times'' is definitely the best disco-grunge kiss-off you'll hear..."

In addition to having rave reviews and some serious fans in the music world, Kate is further establishing herself with a slew of high-profile appearances. She has commanded the attention of audiences across the country with hits in People Magazine, Billboard Magazine, Elle Girl, Cosmo Girl, and MTV and performances of her recent single, "99 Times" on The Today Show and The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. Her following continues to grow and her single continues to grace the Top 40 charts, receiving significant spins and listener reaction around the country. The buzz on Kate has proved to be unstoppable and her presence in the market is unavoidable.

Voegele--who has been performing and recording as a solo artist since releasing a demo in 2003, has appeared on the CW Network drama "One Tree Hill" since 2008, portraying aspiring musician Mia Catalano, exposure that has proven valuable to her off-camera music career.

Kate can also be seen as one of the spokespeople for University of Phoenix, where she has been pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Psychology since spring 2008 through the University's online campus. The University tapped the singer for a campaign to promote higher education, pegging her as the perfect example of how someone can balance education with a professional career and is a proud sponsor of her tour.

Kate is also partnering with University of Phoenix to benefit K-12 public education by supporting The Council of the Great City Schools, an organization composed of 66 large city school districts committed to educating the nation's most diverse student body to the highest academic standards. Throughout the tour, Kate will encourage fans at her concert to text their support for K-12 public education or pledge their commitment to life-long education. Each text will result in a $1 donation by University of Phoenix to The Council of Greater City Schools, up to $50,000.
