"I'm so excited to finally bring this new style of show to the stage. I've been releasing acoustic
versions of songs for a while now and performing them on stage is a whole lot different than
what my show for the last 20 years has been. This show feels so much more personal and
intimate and lets the audience get the stories behind the songs and hear some of the songs you
know in a way no one's ever got to hear before. Can't wait to get back out there and experience
it with you all!" - Classified
