NEWS: Shania Twain Kicks Off Rock This Country Tour
New York, NY (June 9, 2015) - Audiences are clamoring for more after Shania Twain kick-started her Rock This Country Tour in Seattle and Vancouver this weekend. Her first tour in over 11 years, this final tour for fans across the US and Canada follows Shania’s two-year mega hit Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. One of the world’s best-selling female artists of all time, many tour dates are already sold-out, and critics are raving about the first few Rock This Country performances. Fans can get a look at the brand new tour featurette with Shania and Tour Director Raj Kapoor HERE and download live photos HERE (credit Lee Cherry).
“Although she hasn’t been resting on her laurels, thanks to a two-year residency at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, it's a wonder Twain waited until now to step back onstage and remind the rest of the world what she's capable of…and after the reception that she received in Seattle last night, and will surely receive as she criss-crosses North America this summer, she might soon be rethinking those retirement plans.” – Rolling Stone Country
“Knowing this was the final time Twain would play in Seattle, the sold-out house stood in reverence most of the night, reveling in a satisfying array of hits, belting out the lyrics and showering Twain with affection.” - The Seattle Times
“A parade of hits of that calibre, lasting nearly two hours and featuring a mechanical saddle ride above the crowd during Up, is a tough act to match..the Rock This Country tour is a good reminder that Shania was once the undisputed queen of the art, no matter what hair colour.” – The Vancouver Sun
“Let’s just say the show was pure, over-the-top, pop-country pleasure.” - Seattle Music News
“If the audience reaction in Seattle is anything like the remaining dates of her North American tour, she may want to rethink her retirement plans.” – Seattle Music Insider
