Olly Murs will perform 19 shows as a special guest on the One Direction tour in the US and Canada this summer. He will join the tour after he has played Soccer Aid on May 27 and will play 19 dates of the 27 date tour.
 
Columbia will be releasing Olly’s music for the first time stateside this summer too, with a release date to be announced. Olly’s current album ‘In Case You Didn’t Know’ went straight to number 1 in the UK when it was released in November. It has since been certified double platinum. Both singles from the album, ‘Heart Skips A Beat’ and ‘Dance With Me Tonight’, have reached number 1. Olly played a sold out arena tour in the UK earlier this year, including two nights at London’s O2 Arena.
 
Olly’s new UK single ‘Oh My Goodness’ is released on April 1.
