Kris Allen Releases Delivers Impeccable Singer-Songwriter Pop on New Album ‘Pole Vaulter’

We’re always delighted to see Kris Allen doing his thing with the star shining as a consistently brilliant singer-songwriter since winning American Idol. Kris now releases his first original album since 2016 with Pole Vaulter, a set which brings his silky smooth vocals, alongside smooth pop melodies.

The star shared on X: “I started creating this album a long time ago. It began as a bunch of singles back in 2021. But then, Andy Skib and I just kept creating. It became evident that whatever this chapter was that I was writing about wasn’t finished. It needed to be wrapped up in one piece.”

The star will also be hitting the US with an extensive tour – dates can be found on his official site.

Kris shared more about the creative process behind the new LP on his Instagram:
