Scott Stapp 2014 'Proof of Life' Tour Dates Announced, See Cities Here

Scott Stapp, former frontman for rock band, Creed, has announced the first leg of his tour dates in support of his new album Proof of Life.

Stapp's first single off of the new album "Slow Suicide" went to No. 1 on Christian radio. The new album was produced by Howard Benson and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge. The story of his hit song "Proof of Life" was birthed from a chilling moment when Stapp realized that for much of his adult life he had been living life as a 'slow suicide.'

"For years I was slowly killing myself," shared Stapp. "Drugs and booze want to kill you instantly, but they're patient and will take their time. The same is true of toxic relationships. I had to start off this story by declaring the most obvious of truths: that I had been torturing and poisoning myself in an attempt to snuff out my soul."

"My heart tells me that God is always there, even when you feel your breath fading from your lung," says Stapp, speaking lyrics from his song. "God is reaching out to accept you in ways that renew your spirit and energize your soul."

Stapp's tour kicks off the first leg of his 2014 tour March 19 at the House of Blues in Dallas. Tickets are available now through Ticketmaster, with VIP Meet & Greet packages available through Stapp's website.

Stapp fronted the popular American rock band, Creed, which has sold nearly 30 million albums worldwide and garnered three Grammy nominations.
