Nashville, Tenn. (Jan. 23, 2018) – Award winning artists Colton Dixon and Hawk Nelson will co-headline the spring tour, “An Evening With Colton Dixon & Hawk Nelson,” set to launch on Feb. 22, featuring special guest artist Sarah Reeves. Presented by Compassion International, the tour is slated to hit 16 markets in Arkansas, Texas, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota, Michigan, Illinois, Georgia and more, before wrapping up on March 24, in Mount Vernon, Ohio.

Dixon will be touring in support of his third studio project, Identity, which debuted at the top of Billboard’s Christian Albums chart last year, and includes the Top 5 radio single, “All That Matters,” the official music video for the song premiering on People.com this past year.

“I’m so excited to play new music for the fans and share the stage with our friends in Hawk Nelson,” Dixon says. “It’s going to be an awesome tour of celebrating life, love, and the One who makes it all possible.”

Hawk Nelson band members Daniel Biro, Jonathan Steingard, David Niacaris and Micah Kuiper add, “This will be a tour of firsts! The first tour of what is going to be a great 2018. Also the first time we get to tour alongside Colton Dixon and his awesome band. And the first time everyone can hear us play new music from our upcoming album, Miracles!”

About Colton Dixon:
Colton Dixon quickly became a household name in 2012 when he made it to the top seven on Season 11 of Fox's hit show “American Idol,” and his career has been on the fast track ever since. Dixon's 2013 debut, A Messenger, set the record for biggest first-week sales by a new solo Christian act, becoming the No. 1 selling album by a new Christian artist. In just a few short years, Dixon has already played live for more than 1 million fans, performing at festivals like Winter Jam and touring with acts such as Third Day, TobyMac and Britt Nicole. Dixon has also been named a Steinway & Sons artist, following in the footsteps of legendary artists such as Harry Connick, Jr. and Billy Joel. Dixon's sophomore effort Anchor includes the most played Hot AC single of 2014, “More Of You," which spent three weeks at No. 1, as well as "Through All of It," his fourth consecutive No. 1 at Hot AC Radio. In 2013, Dixon won a Dove Award for Best Rock/Contemporary Album Of The Year, along with two additional nominations. In 2015, Anchor was honored with the Dove Award for Rock/Contemporary Album of the Year. Dixon received back-to-back K-LOVE Fan Award nominations for Male Artist of the Year in 2014 and 2015. Dixon's third studio album Identity, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Christian Albums Chart in March 2017, and features the Top 5 radio hit “All That Matters.” For more information, visit www.coltondixon.com

About Sarah Reeves:

Pop artist and songwriter Sarah Reeves signed her first record deal at age 18. After years of aggressive touring, Reeves took an indefinite hiatus to focus solely on songwriting, penning songs for the likes of Jesus Culture, Kari Jobe and Natalie Grant, among others. With a fresh sound stirring in her soul, Reeves began writing personal songs she, herself, wanted to record, which led to a new label deal with Word Entertainment. Since then, Reeves has reintroduced herself as an artist to audiences across the nation on the Winter Jam Tour Spectacular and on tours with Crowder, Plumb, NewSong and more. When she’s home in Nashville, Reeves regularly leads worship at The Belonging Co. Throughout 2018, she’ll be releasing new music, piece by piece, culminating in a brand new 13-track full length project. For more information, visit www.sarahreevesmusic.com
