“The Stars Tour with Anne Wilson" at the Capitol Theatre -- October 24.
Saturday, October 24, 7 p.m.
Capitol Theatre, 330 West Third Street, Davenport IA
Traveling the country in support of her 2025 album that Jesus Freak Hideout said "tackles the subjects of loss, grief, and perseverance with the penmanship of a seasoned veteran and a beautiful voice to match," country-music singer/songwriter Anne Wilson brings the third leg of her Stars tour to Davenport's Capitol Theatre on October 24, her latest recording boasting what Holler Country called the "movingly personal and visceral songwriting that has always illuminated her discography."
As stated at AnneWilsonOfficial.com, the singer/songwriter "makes music where faith and country meet, a rare space where honesty, grief and hope live side by side. At just 24, she has emerged as one of the most distinctive new voices in both Christian and country music. Her third studio album, Stars, captures a young artist growing up on record. Shaped by the tragic loss of her brother Jacob, Wilson’s faith could have been shattered – but instead it was strengthened. That tension, of wrestling with God yet still loving Jesus, defines her music and makes her profoundly relatable. 'Faith isn’t about never questioning,' she says. 'It’s about holding on in the middle of the storm.'
"Her last album, Rebel, featured her chart-topping Christian radio ballad 'Strong.' The genre-bending album followed her Grammy-nominated 2022 debut 'My Jesus,' with the title track becoming a 2x platinum-certified number-one hit on Billboard’s Christian Airplay chart. Since then, Wilson has tallied over 2 billion global streams, made her Grand Ole Opry debut, and wrapped her entirely sold-out headlining 'My Jesus Tour.' Already named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch, one of CMT’s Next Women of Country, and a 2024 Opry Next Stage Artist, she has made high-profile appearances on TODAY and ACM Honors, while earning her first-ever CMT Music Awards nomination, as well as a Billboard Music Award. Unapologetically real, Wilson approaches her craft with a purpose and conviction that sets her apart, declaring, 'I am who I am – I’m Anne Wilson. I love God, and that’s my everything, but I love Country music, too, and I can have a beautiful mix of both.'"
