Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Abi Carter, winner of American Idol Season 22, is heading out on tour next month

The tour will begin with three dates in her home state of California, include a stop in Tennessee and wrap up with three East Coast shows.

Abi, 22, released an excellent debut album, the 10-song “Ghosts in the Backyard,” in mid-November.

But the album was released independently, meaning it dropped with little fanfare. Some songs have yet to surpass 25,000 streams on Spotify.

That’s in contrast to three singles Abi released during or right after her Idol run — “It’s All Love,” “This Isn’t Over” and “Peppermint Sky.”

All of those have more than 300,000 streams on the site.

Tickets for Abi’s first-ever tour are available through her website.

The tour dates are as follows:

Feb. 25 — San Diego, Calif.
Feb. 26 — Fresno, Calif.
Feb. 27 — Felton, Calif.
March 10 — Nashville, Tenn.
March 11 — Atlanta, Ga.
March 13 — Carborro, N.C.
March 15 — Charlotte, N.C.
