Private | Kris Allen returns to Arkansas for charity benefit and convention appearances

Kris returned to Arkansas this past weekend and played a gig on April 13 to benefit Alzheimer's Arkansas, hosted by Glen Campbell's widow. He reportedly sang Wichita Lineman with his father. Updated with video from Kim Allen! That's not Wichita Lineman though. Neil sounds great! The song is called Gentle on My Mind.

On April 17, he played a private gig for the Arkansas Bankers Association conventions. We do have a little video.

See what we do have for both events after the jump.

Preview:
Kris plays a showcase for the National Association of Campus Activities' National Convention. As always with these, this is a chance for them to show off to various campus activities boards why they would be a great act to play at college campuses.

Updated 2/20/2017: Kris and the band did a short set that included the premiere of a new cover. We have full video! I avoid her music like the plague myself, but Kris sounds nice on the song. You'll have to tell me if it sounds like the original or not ;).

Private Event

Meeting Planners International's World Education Congress

June 14, 2016

Harrahs Atlantic City, New Jersey

Around 6 pm eastern today, we saw tweets pop up advertising a Kris performance to meeting planners attending an educational conference in Atlantic City. Turns out he (with the full band) and Redfoo from LMFAO are the closing night's entertainment for this large conference. (Train and Rick Springfield have already entertained the meeting planners.)

Since it's a private gig, we probably won't get set list info, but if I do, I'll add it to this post. In the meantime, here are some photos posted on social media by attendees. (Updated 6/15/2016)

• Twitter video (no sound but KAB looks nice)

Event: February 18, 2014: NACA Convention Showcase, Boston, MA

National Association for Campus Activities Convention Showcase

February 18, 2014

Location
Boston, MA

5:10 PM EST

Preview:
Kris is performing on one of the mainstage showcases for a large convention of college activity programmers. This is not a concert for his fans; rather, it's a chance for him to impress college concert promoters and book college shows in order to make new fans. We are sure he will be quite impressive indeed.

Nonetheless, there will be video taken, so no worries.
