As her tour alongside Tyler Hilton nears its close, singer-songwriter Jessica Carter Altman is taking a moment to reflect on the enriching experiences and look forward to what's next. For Altman, a significant highlight of sharing the stage with Hilton has been the warm reception from his dedicated fanbase. "Outside of the actual performance itself," she shares, "it’s always a highlight meeting everyone after the show. His fans are so wonderful and welcoming. And it’s always a blast coming back on stage during Tyler’s set to sing ‘When The Stars Go Blue.’”

The demands of tour life require a careful balancing act, and Altman has learned valuable lessons along the way. "Whenever I’m on tour, my focus is always to ensure the best performance possible. This includes getting my body and voice warmed up and ready. If I can, I love getting a lesson in with my vocal coach, Joan Lader." This dedication to her craft underscores her commitment to delivering her best for audiences each night.

A particularly memorable moment for Altman occurred early in the tour. "I have a new song coming out at the end of April and this is the first tour when I’ve included it in my set. My first time performing it was in Amherst, which was special. I also had the opportunity to talk to people after the show about my set and new song, which made the experience even more memorable." This early glimpse into her new material and the connection forged with the audience made for a truly impactful experience.

I love the city and rarely get a chance to visit." This anticipation highlights the personal excitement that fuels artists on the road.

Looking beyond the tour, fans of Jessica Carter Altman have much to look forward to. She excitedly announces the upcoming release of her new single, "Mirror Mirror," on April 25th. "I think a lot of people will resonate with this track," Altman explains,

"which explores the internal battle many face in the modern world, hiding from the truth, where the allure of external validation—whether through social media, relationships, or even self-deception."

She encourages fans to pre-save the new track and teases that "more music will be released throughout the year," promising a steady stream of new sounds for her growing audience.
