Singer-songwriter and American Idol Winner David Cook has announced he will kick-off  an acoustic tour this fall in St. Louis, MO on October 25.  Tickets go on-sale Thursday, July 12. (visit davidcookofficial.com/events for tickets and info).

The tour will weave throughout the southeast and hit other major markets like Boston, Washington DC, Philadelphia and New York City. It’ll be a chance for fans to experience an up-close, intimate evening with David, as he performs songs from his brand-new EP, CHROMANCE, as well as other hits from his catalog.   The EP, which was released earlier this year, features all new material that was written over the past year and includes an ethereal mid-tempo spin on the Phil Collins classic, Another Day in Paradise.

If launching a tour and putting out a brand new EP wasn’t enough to keep Cook busy; this past April, he made his Broadway debut as Charlie Price in Kinky Boots and had the time of his life (no pun intended).  David is now set to reprise his performance in the starring role from July 17 through September 9 (tickets available at kinkybootsthemusical.com).

“I am so honored and excited to get to come back to the factory!  Kinky Boots is such a great show, made all the better by having an incredible cast, crew, and staff, and I can’t wait to help tell the story again!”

CHROMANCE  is available now through all digital retailers, including iTunesAmazon and Google Play (view the official lyric video for David’s latest single: Gimme Heartbreak).

David Cook Gets "Kinky"

Steppin' Out
David Cook

C'mon Kinky Boots, start walkin'...!!! 
Singer-songwriter and American Idol Winner David Cook’s brand-new EP, Chromance was released today.   The EP features all new material that was written over the past year and also includes an ethereal mid-tempo spin on the Phil Collins classic "Another Day in Paradise" - https://soundcloud.com/ingroovesmarketing/04-david-cook-another-day-in-paradise/s-2Bu2o?in=ingroovesmarketing/sets/david-cook-chromance/s-YC25e  
If putting out a brand new EP wasn’t enough to keep Cook busy, in April he’s heading to the Great White Way for his Broadway debut in Kinky Boots as Charlie Price. “I’ve had conversations about finding creative outlets outside of being a musician, but the timing was never right.” While Cook is excited for his first starring role, he’s also aware how timely and relevant the message behind Kinky Boots is right now. “I am honored I am going to be part of this show and get to work with so many amazing people. I love the collaborative aspect of theatre too, the idea of being part of a creative team and working it out in front of an audience each night.”

Chromance is available through the PledgeMusic campaign: www.pledgemusic.com/davidcookas well as all other digital retailers.

Mannequin Madness!

Taylor Swift, Todrick Hall & Friends
How was everyone's Black Friday? If you descended into madness and went shopping I hope you got what you wanted and your body parts are still intact. If you are not insane, like me, you stayed home and ate some more, woot!

Something that has been a thing of late is the Mannequin Challenge. I have seen so many videos posted on Facebook & Instagram of friends & family taking it over the Thanksgiving Holiday, good times!

Well you just know Taylor Swift along with her friends and family would not be left out, and of course try to one up everyone else by striking a pose on the beach in the chill of fall. It was all captured for her Instagram page, naturally.

She along with Todrick Hall who is starring in Kinky Boots on Broadway took on Turkey Day and the cold to pose like a mannequin below. Hey standing still on a cold deserted beach sounds like a saner idea than going to an overcrowded mall with shoppers clawing for bargains...

Check it out after the jump!
