Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard have not wrapped up their summer Timeless Tour yet, and there is a tidbit of news for Clay's upcoming tour for his latest album Tried and True. A few cities have been mentioned; Atlanta. Miami and more. Just check out Clay's Fan Club page here
for more info. If you aren't a member of Clay's fan club, check out this page.
Clay Aiken had his first PBS special recently, it was filmed live in his hometown Raleigh, North Carolina in March. Tried and True Live aired last night in some local PBS stations including my local station, WTCI .
Guests performing with Clay included Ruben Studdard and Linda Eder. Clay performed many classic hits from his Tried and True cd that was just released this summer, plus more from the 60's through the 90's. The current Timeless Tour with Ruben covers some of these songs, but Clay will have a tour in 2011 to promote his latest CD.
A touching moment in the concert was when Clay honored one of his teachers. Clay had studied at UNC-Greensboro to become a special education teacher.
This show not only gives fans a chance to see Clay's singing talent, but also gives nonfans(NJU-Not Just Us) a chance to discover Clay Aiken and the other performers. It also gives the younger viewer the chance to discover some of the classic songs, such as Crying and Moon River.
There's A Kind of Hush was previously performed by the 60's group Herman's Hermits and the Carpenters, but now will be featured in Clay Aiken's premiere album with Decca Records- Tried and True. This album is available for pre-order at Amazon.com and will be released on June 1, 2010. It will be interesting to hear Clay's version of the song and compare and contrast it with the previous recordings.
As a side note, I once saw Herman's Hermits in concert in Chattanooga during the eighties with some 60's groups like The Grass Roots and the Monkees.
The hype for Clay's first album on Decca, Tried and True, and his upcoming tour has extended to Google!!! If you search on Google, using the words "clay aiken summer tour 2010", you'll find over 2 Million links; and the tour hasn't even begun yet.
The blend above was made by me with the help of photos from Clack gatherers FountainDawg and Tsapio, and Flicker user swanksalot . You can click here to see the full size photo.
So far, there is no official itinerary for Clay Aiken's concert "tour", but a few dates have been added as concert dates; plus there are a few television appearances in the summer. The concert in Raleigh was recorded for a PBS to be aired sometimes this summer, probably around the album release date which may be June 1. All of the concerts are to promote Clay's debut record with Decca Records, Tried and True-50's and 60's songs. Clay is also scheduled to appear on the Disney Channel animated series, Phineas and Ferb sometimes this summer. That would be a great chance for Clay to gain fans from a younger generation, which is a good thing!!
