Mickey Guyton

After more than a decade based in the Nashville country music world, Mickey Guyton has long since caught the ears of fellow artists and music listeners, with multiple Grammy nominations, guest spots on singles, and even tour dates with Shania Twain. Will country radio finally follow suit and support her new album, House on Fire? If they don’t, Guyton’s songs bring enough pop and R&B to the mix to cross over to pop radio. She’s currently on her first headlining tour, accompanied by Denitia.

media release: Four-time Grammy®-nominated country performer Mickey Guyton will headline the latest installment of “CMT On Tour,” produced by Live Nation. “CMT On Tour Presents Mickey Guyton” will make a stop at Majestic Theatre in Madison on Tuesday, October 22, 2024.

The tour announcement also coincides with the release of Mickey’s new single “Scary Love,” which she released April 26. “Scary Love” showcases Guyton’s undying appreciation for motherhood and serves as a ballad dedicated to her three-year-old son.

Earlier this month, Mickey also shined at the 2024 CMT Music Awards on CBS, where she earned nominations for “Collaborative Video Of The Year” and “Video Of The Year” for her collaboration with Kane Brown on “Nothing Compares To You.”
