MySpace and University of Phoenix

Present the Official “Back

2 School”

Tour Starting August 8th

on West Coast

LOS ANGELES–(EMWNews)–MySpace Records/ Interscope recording artist Kate Voegele today

announced plans for the “Back 2 School”

tour, sponsored by University of Phoenix. The “Back

2 School,” Voegele’s

first headline tour, will include 40-dates across North America.

While on tour, Kate will chronicle her road experience via video diaries

as she strives to maintain balance between her musical career and the

two college courses she is taking as a Psychology major at University of

Phoenix. While on tour, the MySpace community will get exclusive

behind-the-scenes access to Kate’s personal and musical growth through

weekly video journals, bulletins and “Ask Kate”

forums that will be posted on MySpace http://www.myspace.com/kateontour.

“We are so excited to be working with

University of Phoenix on this tour! It truly represents what the MySpace

Music platform is all about: creating unique opportunities for artists,

fans, and brands to connect around music,”

said J Scavo, General Manager of MySpace Records. “Kate’s

tour last Spring was unbelievable and an even bigger turnout than we

ever expected. This time, we have a unique opportunity to give her fans

a glimpse ‘behind the scenes’ as Kate maintains balance between life on

the road and her college education, which her fans are going to love!”

Voegele, hailed by Entertainment Weekly for being among the best

of “the new golden age of female

singer-songwriters,” is touring in support of

debut album Don’t

Look Away, the record that earned her “Artist

to Watch In ‘08”

accolades from Billboard.

“Although her career path may be different from many of our students,”

said Dr. Bill Pepicello, University of Phoenix president, “Kate’s

commitment to her education is the same. She is one of over 345,000

current students who know University of Phoenix plays an important role

in higher education today, offering nontraditional, working students,

like Kate, a quality alternative that is more accessible than

conventional four-year colleges and universities.”

“I am looking forward to my first headlining

tour with MySpace and University of Phoenix,”

said MySpace Records/ Interscope recording artist, Kate Voegele. “While

on the road, I’m able to reach my fans

through constant updates on MySpace and still be able to focus on the

Psychology classes I’m taking at University

of Phoenix, so it’s really the best of both

worlds.”

The campaign follows a flurry of headline-making moves for Voegele, who

began 2008 with a guest-starring role on the CW Network’s

hit TV series “One Tree Hill”

and maintained a high media profile with performances on “Live

with Regis and Kelly” and CBS’

“The Early Show,”

as well as appearances on MTV’s “TRL”

and Fuse-TV’s “The

Sauce.” She’s also

been featured on the cover of USA Today’s

“Life” section and

appeared in the pages of People, CosmoGirl, TV Guide

and Giant, to name but a few. The 21-year-old Voegele recently

joined Sheryl Crow, Nelly and 3 Doors Down in recording exclusive tracks

for the AT&T Team USA Soundtrack, a collection of songs that hope to

motivate American Olympians at this year’s

Games in Beijing. Fans can purchase Voegele’s

song—the sweepingly beautiful “Lift

Me Up”—through

iTunes with proceeds benefiting the U.S. Olympic team.
