This year marks Clarkson's tenth in the music business - having made her national debut on "American Idol" in 2002. For a fairly prolific chart topper (she's released a new album every two years since 2005's monster smash "Breakaway"), Clarkson's Charlotte tour stops have been sporadic. She was here with fellow "American Idol" alum Clay Aiken in February 2004 and headlined July 4 festivities in 2006. But her last Charlotte show was a co-headlining date with Reba McEntire way back in November 2008. She's since released two albums.
The Fray on the other hand have become an annual concert attraction here. It last stopped at The Fillmore this past December.
Tickets for the September 12 concert go on sale Friday, April 20 at 10 a.m. at www.livenation.com, www.ticketmaster.com, at the Hardee's Thickburger box office at the venue, and by calling 1-800-745-3000.
Clarkson is also set to appear on a new ABC singing-based reality series called "Duets." She stars alongside Lionel Richie, Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles, and Robin Thicke. According to "The Hollywood Reporter" the series will premier Thursday May 24 - just a day after "American Idol's" season finale.
Hopefully, the Fray won't sing the Star Spangled Banner.

DeleteWho the hell is The Fray??
ReplyDeleteGuys, get day jobs before it's too late.
nice ego. that venue will be near empty. kelly clarkson, alone, might pull a couple hundred per stop on the club circuit.
ReplyDeletethe others add no value.
Just another American Idol wannabe. Did any of those shows winners really amount to much? You can't "make" a genuine fan favorite that stands the test of time.
ReplyDeleteHave you lost your mind..Kelly Clarkson has sold over 25 MILLION records..and this April she sold out the Fox Theater in Atlanta...AND Carrie Underwood has sold over 14 MILLION records and over 22 MILLION singles. Get your facts straight! Just don't come to the show.
DeleteAll you guys have no idea what your talking about!! Kelly clarkson is One of the most successful Idols of all time! And the fray is probably the greatest American rock band today!! Ignorance! Ignorance! Ignorance!
