Background

Cher Lloyd spoke about the tour in an interview with Artistdirect.

She said,

"I really wanted to make it intimate. I want fans to feel like they're almost on stage with me. Connecting with everyone in a room can be a difficult task. I really wanted to open the door a little bit and perform some brand new songs. I'm a little nervous because they obviously haven't been released yet. No one has the actual recordings. Tonight, for the first time, I'm going to be performing them live. I understand they're going to get put on the internet. I'm nervous about it [Laughs]. They're getting a preview of the album, and it's live. I'd better do it well!" [1]
