I am so jealous of Louisville! The band Delta Rae has been on tour, and for their Louisville show on May 31, they've lined up Kris as their opening act. If you haven't already seen Delta Rae and Kris collaborate on a cover of George Michael's Freedom '90, go do that right now.

Updated June 2, 2019: Our friend Jackie (@ShouldI45) did indeed get to this show, and did indeed bring some videos home with her! Check them out after the break, plus set list too.

Festival | March 29, 2019: Kris Allen Plays Tin Pan South Showcase in Nashville

Tin Pan South showcase

The Local

Nashville, TN

6:30 PM CDT

Tickets at door

Kris is playing the annual Tin Pan South festival in Nashville this Friday, March 29. He'll join his friend from Delta Rae, Eric Holljes and two other singer-songwriters in a showcase sponsored by the Tennessee Entertainment Commission.

In previous Tin Pan South appearances, he's debuted new songs (Waves in 2015 and When All the Stars Have Died in 2018), so it will be interesting to see if he does the same this time. He did tell meet and greet participants during the Christmas tour that new music would be coming out around the end of March, so hopefully!

Updated: No word of any new songs premiered. Partial set lists and some IG videos after the break

Kris Allen sang these songs for the first time in 2018

Happy new year Kris fans! I thought for a little recap for 2018, I'd make a YouTube playlist of songs that were first sung by Kris in 2018. Since he mainly just did one-offs, the Idol tour and the holiday show, but didn't put out a full album, the playlist doesn't have too much on it. The two originals that haven't been released yet - hopefully we'll get official versions in 2019. (Kris said during meet and greets this year that he hopes to have new music out by the end of March.)



On this 2018 playlist, you'll find these songs (and I'll put in some mp3 links too for my favorites):

• When All the Stars Have Died [Apple Music | Spotify | Google Play | Amazon]
• Waiting on You (original - not released yet so no mp3)
• Safe Harbor (original - not released yet so no mp3)
• Freedom '90 (amazing cover with Delta Rae, Sean McConnell and Josh Jenkins) [mp3]
• Rainbow Connection (backing Maddie Poppe in the Idol tour)
• Folsom Prison Blues (backing Caleb Lee Hutchison in the Idol tour)
• There's Nothing Holding Me Back (Idol tour finale) [mp3]
• Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (great cover from the Christmas tour) [mp3]

Be safe and Happy New Year. Here's to new music in 2019!
