After opening for acts such as Darius RuckerBrantley Gilbert, and Kip Moore, Michael Ray is stepping out into the spotlight on his own for his headlining Get To You Tour. Marking the second time Ray has been the main act on the bill, the tour will hit 15 cities across the country, with the kick-off on Thursday, Oct. 5 at Tuscaloosa’s Druid City Music Hall.

“I had such an amazing time on the ‘Think A Little Less Tour’ last year as it was really the first opportunity since we started this journey to really get out there and see what our fans wanted to hear and experience,” said Ray in a press release. “Since, I’ve been out opening for some incredible acts from Alabama and Sam Hunt to Darius Rucker; I treated every date we played as a chance to learn something – whether it was backstage training or standing sidestage just taking it all in – having those experiences have all led to this tour, and I can’t wait to share it with fans.”

The tour comes just after the release of Ray’s new single, “Get To You.” The track, which follows his No.1 smash “Think A Little Less,” is one that shows a different side to the Florida native’s voice.

“It’s different vocally,” he told Sounds Like Nashville previously. “I’ve been working with a vocal coach in L.A. and we’ve been doing Skype sessions. I think I owe it to the fans. I owe it to them and I owe it to the songwriters and I owe it to my team to be the best that I can be and to step it up to the next level that this sophomore album needs to be. I feel like we’ve made that step.”

Joining Ray for the Get To You Tour will be country newcomer Devin Dawson.
