Sam Hunt Announces The “Lipstick Graffitti Tour”

Sam Hunt just announced his first headlining tour, kicking off in West Hollywood in January!  And, best of all, he’s making a stop in NYC!  (Loyal Secret Fangirl readers will know this is a huge deal for us.)  We love how Sam’s unique mix of country and R&B influences blend into his distinct sound.   He’s also an incredibly fun artist to watch live.  Even on his opening spot on the “Up In Smoke Tour,” the whole crowd was singing along.

You don’t want to miss this one – Sam’s single “Leave The Night On” has gone platinum, and his first album “Montevallo” debuted at #1 on the country charts.  He just sold out his first headlining show on Long Island next week, and we’re sure he’ll be selling out arenas one day.  Pre-sales start Wednesday Nov 12th,  and general on sales begin Friday Nov 14th!

Check out the full list of “Lipstick Graffiti” Tour dates below.  Sam is bringing fellow country artists Michael Ray and Native Run along for the ride.

The Friday Five: Jonas Brothers Songs

We caught the last stop of Nick Jonas’ mini tour in Brooklyn last night, in support of his new self-titled album out November 11th.   We’d be lying if we said we were totally over the Jo Bros unexpected breakup last fall  – after all, we’ve seen them in concert more than any other artist combined.   We’ve been singing Nick’s praises since circa 2007, but it’s nice to see that finally all of his secret fans have come out in the open and realized what we’ve been saying all along.

Last night’s show was a definite departure from the Jonas Brothers’ style, so let’s take a look back at our favorite Jonas songs.  If you’re feeling nostalgic, we suggest breaking out your “Bonus Jonas” edition DVD.

1. “Goodnight and Goodbye”
This is the song that cemented our love, when we saw them open for J Mac back in the day.  We have a vivid memory of Nick ripping off his bowtie during this song, leading to immediately fangirling and possibly a sign of things to come.

2. “Pushin’ Me Away”
The concert movie intro of this song is one of our faves because of how into it Joe gets, pretending to direct the string section and then it stops and his vocals kick in.   True story: we also had our own dance moves to this song.

3. “Sorry”
We’re proud to say that we were in attendance of the one and ONLY time they ever performed this song.  We’re glad someone was functioning enough to get this on video because we were probably sing-screaming at the top of our lungs (considering they had just brought out Robert Schwartzman)

4. “I Am What I Am”
Sorry Taylor, but THIS is the ultimate anti-hater jam.  If you don’t like it get with somebody else.  We may or may not have lost it when they played this song in a medley in 2010.

5. “What Do I Mean To You”
One of the last songs that they ever released (if you count giving the last album to your fan club for free as “releasing an album”), “What Do I Mean To You” was a dark song spawned from a failed relationship.  The breakup had fans wondering what we meant to them, too.

Shawn Mendes Releases “Something Big”

Vine superstar Shawn Mendes just released his new single called “Something Big.”  It’s the perfect title for the song, since fans were able to actually move the release date of the song up a few days by tweeting #GetSomethingBigNov7 over 1 million times and counting.  Talk about fangirl power.

Listen to “Something Big” below and pickup a copy on iTunes now!

Shawn Mendes will be on tour with Taylor Swift next summer so be sure to get your tickets before they sell out! Tickets go on sale soon, check out all the tour dates HERE.
