Crooning through life! Jesse McCartney has been a musical marvel since his early days of belting out hits “Beautiful Soul” and “She’s No You” — and he’s shown no signs of slowing down.
“Performing live on stage again was amazing, thank you @MaskedSingerFOX! I can’t wait to do it again next May on the New Stage 2022 Tour!❤️,” the 35-year-old Summerland alum — who released his album New Stage earlier this year — wrote via Instagram while announcing his forthcoming live concerts in December 2021.
McCartney’s cross-country tour kicks off on May 3 in Cincinnati with opening acts Jamie Miller and Casey Baer. Performances are set to run through June 25.
The former Dream Street member’s latest chart-topping hits have, in part, been inspired by his wife, Katie Peterson, whom he wed in October 2021.
“She’s certainly a big muse for this album and you can hear it lyrically. It’s too specific not to be about a certain person,” the Masked Singer alum exclusively told Us Weekly in August 2021 of his longtime love. “I think the new album coming out is some of my best writing and some of the most poignant writing. [It] really talks about what it’s like for me as an artist, growing up in the industry and what it’s like being in a relationship and being in the industry. I think [it’s] really accessible for people.”

2. My favorite songs [have] got to be a Beatles song, maybe “Blackbird” or “Here There and Everywhere.”
3. My proudest moment was watching my wife, Katie, walk down the aisle.
