SAMMY ADAMS ANNOUNCES SPRING TOUR DATES

SAMMY ADAMS ANNOUNCES SPRING TOUR DATES

(Los Angeles, CA) – RCA Records singer, songwriter and producer Sammy Adams will hit the road this spring on a national tour with T. Mills. Tickets go on sale on Friday, February 8^th for the tour that kicks off on April 4^th.

Adams is currently in the studio working on his debut RCA Records album coming later this year and recently co-wrote and was featured on Enrique Iglesias’ single “Finally Found You” which made it to the Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. Last summer, Adams premiered the official video for his explosive summer single, “Only One,” across VEVO.  The song was also featured as part of CBS’ promos for the 2013 NFL playoffs.

Late last year, Adams released OK Cool, his pre-album (mixtape) which featured a snippet of his track “All Night Longer,” now available for sale at all digital music providers. In early 2012, Adams debuted the music video for his first single, “Blow Up,” on VEVO and made his nationwide television debut on “Conan.”

Adams burst into the music scene in 2010, after releasing his breakthrough single “I Hate College” — a cheeky remix of Asher’s Roth’s “I Love College,” which he recorded in his dorm room at Trinity College in his home state of Connecticut. He then went on to independently release album Boston’s Boy shot to the top of the iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap chart on its first day out in March 2010, selling over 100,000 copies in the U.S after its release.

His independent viral videos have garnered millions of YouTube views, including “I Hate College” (6 M) and “Driving Me Crazy” (3.4 M). He has performed over 250 shows and sold out theatres across North America in the last year.  Adams has graced the stage at Lollapalooza, Bamboozle, Global Dance and has sold out shows at New York City’s Terminal 5 and Roseland Ballroom.
