Nearly a month into his summer run, season seven "American Idol" winner David Cook has tacked a handful of dates onto his tour schedule in support of his self-titled debut, which surfaced last fall.
Cook, who kicked off the outing last month just after losing his older brother to cancer, will take the stage Thursday (7/10) in Lansing, MI, before continuing through the Midwest and on to the East Coast. Among the 19 new dates added to the itinerary are performances in Chicago (7/12); Alexandria, VA (7/29); New York (8/6-7); Salem, OR (9/5); Atlantic City, NJ (9/26); and Friant, CA (11/12). Details are included below.

Cook set a record for debut entries last spring with 11 songs entering the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Digital Songs charts just one week after winning the title of "American Idol." The performer released his self-titled debut last November, which has sold more than one million copies to date; three tracks from the set--"Time of My Life," "Light On" and "Come Back to Me"--have cracked the Top 10 on Adult Top 40 radio stations nationwide.
Produced by Grammy Award winner Rob Cavallo (Kid Rock, Green Day), Cook's platinum-certified debut features 13 tracks, nine of which he co-wrote with established songwriters like Chris Cornell and Brian Howes.
Cook, who performed a cover of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" while competing on "American Idol" last year, recently discussed the icon's death with MTV.
"The impact Michael Jackson has had on me as an artist is the same impact he's had on everyone," Cook told MTV News. "He blew pop music wide open and made it bigger than just music."
