Demi Lovato announces first concert dates after hiatus

Demi Lovato has announced her first concert dates after taking time off for personal issues.

Lovato tweeted that she will be playing at The Hammerstein Ballroom on September 17 and Club Nokia on September 23. Her new album, Unbroken, drops September 20.

She told Ryan Seacrest that the shows are all about her fans, aka Lovatics.

“These shows are basically thanking my fans for being so supportive throughout this entire journey,” she said. “This is the first time that I will be on stage in about a year. I am already so excited and can’t wait to see everyone out there in the audience.”

According to the singer’s Twitter account, the shows will be quite the production.

“It’ll be a big show!” she tweeted.

It will just be Lovato for the two nights, as there will not be an opening act and she will have choreography. Tickets go on sale Thursday for members of her fan club and Friday for the public.
