On the heels of the release of his new album, The People’s Champ, Platinum singer and songwriter Quinn XCII reveals the North American leg of “The People’s Tour” today with special guests A R I Z O N A and Julia Wolf. Produced by Live Nation, the tour makes a stop in Grand Rapids, MI at Van Andel Arena on Saturday, June 10. Pre-sales go live starting on Tuesday, February 7 with the general on-sale on Friday, February 10 at 10AM at VanAndelArena.com. Sign-up for early access to pre-tickets HERE.
The People’s Champ features Quinn XCII’s singles “Too Late” feat. AJR, “The Lows,” “Let Me Down” feat. Chelsea Cutler (the artists’ sixth collaboration together), “Common” feat. Big Sean, and “Backpack”. Consequence praised “Too Late” saying “[the track] uses a horn riff, tambourines, and driving piano to keep a hopeful momentum balancing out the air of acceptance in the lyrics”, and recently he delivered an electrifying performance of “The Lows” on The Late Late Show with James Corden—watch HERE.
“Even five records in, I feel like I still have to fight for my stripes and prove myself. My career, to me, has always felt like an underdog story, so even though the deeper message of the album is to be yourself, I thought ‘The People’s Champ’ was a fitting double entendre that could also represent my view of where I currently stand in the music industry.” – Quinn XCII
The People’s Champ follows Quinn XCII’s 2021 album Change of Scenery II, which debuted #1 on the Apple Pop Charts and Spotify’s US Debut Album Chart. His catalogue has amassed over 3.5 billion global streams to date and includes 3 RIAA Platinum and 5 RIAA Gold Singles. Not to mention, he has sold out countless tours, including shows at the iconic Radio City Music Hall in New York City, The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, and many more.
About Quinn XCII
Quinn XCII (pronounced Quinn Ninety-Two) believes we are all already The People’s Champ. It’s a message he plants at the heart of his new full-length album, The People’s Champ, out January 27th via Republic Records. It’s not about becoming the best, the biggest, the strongest, the richest, or the most successful. Instead, it reflects what the Detroit, MI native describes as “simply being.” Since his arrival in 2015, he’s excelled by simply being Quinn XCII. Powered by clever storytelling and a willingness to blur the lines between pop, soul, alternative, and hip-hop, his catalog boasts a procession of platinum singles—“Kings of Summer” with ayokay, “Straightjacket,” and “Love Me Less” with MAX—and various gold singles, namely “Flare Guns” and “Stay Next To Me” (both with Chelsea Cutler), “Another Day In Paradise,” “Stacy,” and “Always Been You. He consistently draws crowds across the country, moving north of 350,000 tickets as a headliner and shining on hallowed stages such as Radio City Music Hall, Red Rocks Amphitheater, The Greek Theatre, and more. Simultaneously, he has played for thousands at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Firefly, Governors Ball, Summerfest, and Electric Forest. Moreover, he’s collaborated with the likes of Logic, Big Sean, blackbear, AJR, Chelsea Cutler, Jeremy Zucker, Ashe, Louis The Child, Gryffin, Illenium, and many others. In addition to earning acclaim from Billboard, Rolling Stone, Paper Magazine, and Interview Magazine, he’s also performed on television shows such as Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Live with Kelly and Ryan, and Today Show, to name a few.
