Yet another One Tree Hill star is set to play Glasgow this year after recent shows from Gavin Degraw and Wakey!Wakey! in the city. Californian singer Tyler Hilton, or Chris Keller as you may know him from One Tree Hill, recently announced that he will be embarking on a European tour, including the UK, in June. Of course he couldn't come to the UK without stopping in Scotland and will be playing at the O2 Academy in Glasgow as well as the HMV Picture House in Edinburgh as a support act for Boyce Avenue.
Tyler built up quite a bit of excitement for the tour as first he promised fans on Twitter that they would find out the release date of his new album once he reached 115,000 followers (a cheeky way of getting more followers if you ask me) and it wasn't long before this happened and the album release was announced. He then posted that he had a surprise for UK fans and a few days later posted that he would be doing a 12 date UK tour and then shortly after announced that he was supporting Boyce Avenue. As great as it is that he's coming over, I'm sure the UK was anticipating from his tweets that it was going to be a headline tour, but I'm sure he'll still be great even although his set time will be limited.
The tour will support his next album, 'Forget The Storm', which is set for worldwide release on April 3rd. This is his first full length album release since 'The Tracks Of' in 2004 so it is an exciting time for fans not only across Europe but across the rest of the world as well. So far he has already released two singles from the album, 'Loaded Gun' and 'Prince of Nothing Charming', and it is thought that the third single could be 'Kicking My Heels' as various live versions of the song have appeared on sites such as YouTube and he performed it on episode two of the final season of One Tree Hill. Have a look at how Tyler spends his Thursday afternoon's in the video below.
Which One Tree Hill star will be next to play Glasgow? With a number of singers from the show still left to play here - Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley), Jana Kramer (Alex), Kate Voegele (Mia) and Bryan Greenberg (Jake) - it could be a while before they've all had a visit, but I'm hoping that next up is Kate or Bethany, but only time will tell.
