PAC to welcome Elle King
Multi-platinum, award-winning recording artist Elle King will perform at the Performing Arts Center at Kent State Tuscarawas on Saturday, Sept. 14 at 7:30 p.m.
A vocalist and songwriter, Grammy nominee, and Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music Award winner, King has amassed nearly 2 billion streams worldwide including over 275 million for King’s Platinum-certified hit “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” with Miranda Lambert. The award-winning song reached No. 1 on both Billboard’s Country Airplay and Mediabase/Country Aircheck Charts, marking the first woman-woman collaboration to reach the top spot on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart since Reba McEntire and Linda Davis’ “Does He Love You.”
King's 2024 tour features a variety of venues and festivals, like Billy Bob’s, C2C shows in London and Glasgow, Stagecoach, Country Thunder, WE Fest, GoldenSky, Newport Folk Fest and more.
She is the first female artist in history to have scored radio No. 1 singles on four different formats including Adult Pop Songs, Adult Alternative Songs, Alternative Songs and Country Airplay charts. Her debut album “Love Stuff” featured her breakthrough single “Ex’s & Oh’s,” which earned her two Grammy nominations and is certified four times platinum.
Her blend of music has found her a multi-genre fan base, and she tours with multi-genre artists like Jelly Roll, Tyler Childers, Dierks Bentley, Melissa Etheridge and The Chicks.
