Singer-Songwriter Josh Kelley, aka Mr. Heigl, announces upcoming tour dates in the US with Collective Soul.

Josh Kelley, aka Mr. Heigl, will kick off another US tour, from March 21-April 23, 2008, this time with Collective Soul. 

Twelve dates have been confirmed, starting in Nevada and spanning from the West coast, across the Midwest and down the East coast.  Kelley’s new album Special Company, which hit stores nationwide on Feb. 5th and climbed as high as #2 on the iTunes Top-selling Albums chart, has already sold close to 50,000 units to date.

The Augusta, Georgia native is known worldwide for his marriage to Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl. His music is a mixture of pop rock and blue rock.

After wrapping up a 10-city tour with One Republic in February, Kelley is back on the road later this month with alt-rock giants Collective Soul.  Having been on the road most of the year in 2007, Kelley is now consistently playing venues with capacities well over 1,000 people.  His most recent show on Feb. 29th at NYC's Roseland Ballroom sold out, with about 3,500 audience members in attendance.  Kelley was recently featured on several national TV shows, including Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, Carson Daly, and Regis and Kelly.

Kelley’s fourth album and second under his own label, DNK Records, Special Company remains on Billboard’s “Top Heatseekers” chart, holding fast to the #24 position (peaked at #7).
