Vanessa Carlton, the Grammy nominated, multi-Platinum-selling singer-songwriter will launch her upcoming Haunted Club Tour on Nov. 2 in Scottsdale, AZ, and she’ll wind down on Nov. 24 in Montreal, Quebec.
Carlton’s new album “Heroes & Thieves” was released today, Oct. 9, and her set list will include fan favorites and radio hits as well as her new single, “Nolita Fairytale,” the video for which is garnering heavy rotation on VH1. The album was co-produced by Linda Perry (Gwen Stefani, Pink), Carlton, Stephan Jenkins (Third Eye Blind front man) and Irv “Gotti” Lorenzo (CEO of The Inc. Records).
Launching her recording career with her debut disc “Be Not Nobody,” Carlton exploded onto the music scene with the hit piano single “A Thousand Miles,” which reached the Top 5 on Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles chart. She went on to earn 2003 Grammy nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist for the single.
“People tell me my songs are a little weird or unconventional, but in a good way, and I like that,” Carlton said in a statement. “I really wanted the new album to be the one you want to wake up to on a Sunday morning and listen to over and over.”
