(PR) Mark Burnett Records/Atlantic recording artist Ryan Star has announced details of a major U.S. tour. The New York-based rocker will join David Cook for the trek, kicking off February 13th at Florida State University's Club Down Under in Tallahassee with a special hometown headline performance at The Bowery Ballroom on March 17th.
The dates then continue through late April. The tour heralds the release of Star's long awaited label debut, "11:59," which arrives everywhere this summer.
Star first drew national attention as a member of the band Stage. Upon embarking on a solo career, he honed his skills performing in clubs across New York, including Joe's Pub and Rockwood Music Hall. He continued to build a fervent fan following as a MySpace Featured Artist, as well as by competing on CBS' reality series, Rock Star: Supernova.
