Over the months of April and May, Hoodie made a 22-stop tour across the US in support of All American, featuring Wax, Jared Evan, and others varying from show to show. [7] On March 23, 2012, Hoodie hinted at an upcoming announcement of a "UK tour for June", and officially announced the four dates on April 19 via Facebook.
