An Intimate Evening with Lea Michele (often called Places Tour) is a promotional tour by American singer Lea Michele, in support of her second studio album, Places (2017). The tour began on January 23, 2017 at Hotel Café.[1]
Background[edit]
On January 11, 2017, Michele announced on social media that she would go on a mini tour in January, saying, "My incredible fans have always been there for me. You inspire me. You've stood by me, cheered me on and lifted me up. When preparing for [this] upcoming album I wanted you all to know how important you are to me. These shows are a sneak peek into my upcoming album, as well as songs from Louder and maybe.. even a little Glee."[2] Ticket presales for the shows were made available on January 12, 2017,[3] and general ticket sales began the following day on January 13. The three shows were sold out later that same day.[4]
At her Hotel Café show, Michele sang the following songs from her upcoming sophomore album, Places, live for the first time: "Run to You", "Heavy Love", "Anything's Possible", "Love Is Alive", "Sentimental Memories", and "Getaway Car". On March 3, 2017, Michele released "Love Is Alive" as the lead single from Places, and also confirmed the continuity of the tour by announcing she will be adding new tour dates.[5] The additional dates for shows in the United States and Canada were announced on March 6, 2017.[6] A single performance in London, England was announced on April 10, 2017, with presales beginning two days later on April 12.[7]
