The last time Sam Smith did the United States leg of their world tour was back in 2018 and the closest they came to Minnesota was Chicago. But thankfully they will be coming here this summer as part of their "Gloria" Tour which happens to be the title of their fourth new album which comes out January 27.

Smith has already seen huge success with their first single off the forthcoming album  "Unholy" featuring Kim Petras. Having been a long-time fan of Smith this is sure to be a show like no other. I love the confidence that they seem to have brought out in themselves. I have seen recent interviews where they seem like they have finally shown their sassy side and I am here for it.

Sometimes I sit back and think to myself what would happen if they and Adele were on the stage at the same time? I honestly think the planet would explode, that would be too much talent and amazingness all in one place at the same time.

Smith will be performing live at Xcel Energy Center with Special Guest Jessie Reyez on August 16. Tickets go on sale on January 13 at 9 am. For more information or to purchase tickets xcelenergycenter.com.
