We all came to know Kris Allen during the eighth season of the hit television show, American Idol.  Since winning the show in 2009, his popularity has been on the rise.  His first album “Kris Allen” was released in the fall of 2009 and had a U.S. debut at number eleven on the Billboard 200 chart.  The singles that Allen has released have seen great success, all of them landing in the top twenty on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The singer will be going on tour again this summer, headlining most of the shows.  This is really the first time the young star has been on tour since the end of the American Idol tour last year.  He will be playing with bands like Maroon 5 and VV Brown for some performances and for other performances he has invited some local bands to join him on stage.  On June 11, 2010, the Kris Allen tour will make a stop at the Crossroads Café in Huntsville, Alabama.  The show starts at 7:30 that evening and tickets are $22.00.  Tickets are available directly from his website and from Crossroads Café.
