Hailey Knox Joins Charlie Puth on 29-Date Tour this Fall
17-Year-Old's Debut EP 'A Little Awkward' Out June 24th on S-Curve Records17-year-old Hailey Knox's debut EP 'A Little Awkward' will be released June 24th on S-Curve Records, capturing the magic of her mesmerizing guitar-and-loop pedal live performances and showcasing the irreverent and cleverly original songs which have earned her breakout viral success online.
Hailey will also embark on a 29-date North American tour with Charlie Puth starting Sept. 26th and hitting NYC, Philadelphia, Dallas, Seattle, Los Angeles, Austin and more. Full dates below.
Lead EP single "Geeks" was praised by Idolator as "the new anthem for outsiders and the defiantly uncool" and Meghan Trainor who tweeted that she is "obsessed" with the track. Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbHrj0KKoUM
Elsewhere on the EP, Hailey sings of body image issues and being stalked online by her parents, with uncommon candor and a pop culture epicure's touch, name-checking everyone from painter Jean-Michel Basquiat and 80's pop group DeBarge, to the Shake Shack burger chain and iconic film Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Although this is her first EP, Hailey has already earned a sizable and devoted following online via her performances on the rapidly growing livestreaming platform YouNow. Knox was profiled as a YouNow success story in Billboard earlier this year, and earned a nomination for "YouNower of the Year" at the 2016 Shorty Awards. Hailey will also perform and speak at the 7th annual VidCon next week in LA.
