Following a whirlwind year of landmark achievements, heartfelt performances, and rapidly growing fan support, “American Idol” Season 21 winner Iam Tongi is heading out on the road for his first full national headlining run. The Iam Tongi Fall Tour will bring Tongi’s signature blend of emotional storytelling, island soul and acoustic warmth to fans across the U.S. this October and November. A second leg with west coast dates will be announced soon. Tickets are on sale now at iamtongiofficial.com.
The tour comes on the heels of several major career milestones for the 20-year-old Hawaiian singer-songwriter, including being featured on Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch soundtrack, delivering a fan-favorite version of “Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride;” a performance of his latest single “Unbreak My Heart” on The Kelly Clarkson Show; a surprise plaque presentation for over 100 million career streams during CMA Fest week, where he made his debut; as well as a debut on the famous Grand Ole Opry.
Tongi’s latest release, “Unbreak My Heart,” is a powerful tribute to his late father, whom he emotionally honored with his unforgettable “Monsters” audition on American Idol – a performance that brought all three judges to tears and has since become the most-viewed audition in the show’s YouTube history with over 39 million views. The new song continues Tongi’s tradition of vulnerable, soul-deep storytelling and was praised for its “vocals tinged with pain and perseverance.”
The Iam Tongi Fall Tour will bring the rising star to nearly 30 cities across the country, including Nashville, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Chicago and more. Whether fans have been with him since Idol or are just discovering the music, this tour promises a live experience filled with heart, harmony and healing.
He is currently on the road this summer including several dates as support for Hawaiian singer-songwriter Maoli on his Last Sip of Summer Tour, Niko Moon’s American Palm Tour, as well as Kolohe Kai’s What Aloha Means Tour.
