Carrie Underwood Tickets For An All-American Show!

It is tough to get Carrie Underwood tickets today. Just a few years ago, Underwood was just another young girl from Oklahoma. It wasn't until she made an appearance on American Idol that the world got to know about this singing sensation. Since her win on season four, Underwood has managed to grow from strength to strength and is now a well respected country music singer with many awards to her name.

The American Idol Angle

People lining up for Carrie Underwood tickets today may not be aware that prior to American Idol, Underwood had almost signed a recording contract. Raised on a farm, she regularly performed at local singing events. In 1996, she almost signed a contract with Capitol Records. However, when the management of the company underwent a change, Underwood's contract was cancelled. This was actually a blessing in disguise. If she had landed that recording contract, Underwood would probably not have auditioned for American Idol, a few years later.

When auditioning for American Idol in 2004, Underwood probably had little idea that in a few years, people would be lining up for Carrie Underwood tickets. She established herself early as a strong singer. Even today, people talk about how well she sang the classic song 'Alone' by Heart. She is also one of the few Idol winners who were never voted into the bottom three. In fact, one of the show's producers later stated that Underwood won each week's voting by a fair margin.

After Idol

She lived up to the expectations of fans and critics alike by releasing her debut album in 2006. Called 'Some Hearts', it currently holds the record for being the fastest selling debut country music album in the history of Nielsen Sound Scan. This album has three hit singles and was later named the Top Country Album of the Decade. Her following albums have also spawned hit singles. In 2009, she became the highest selling Idol contestant in the US. She is also the second highest-selling American Idol contestant in the world, the first being Kelly Clarkson. Underwood has become the new darling of the Academy of Country Music. She is currently the ACM Entertainer of the Year and a three-time Academy winner as well.
