A musician from Niverville is heading south to be the opening act for Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Jeremy Camp's concert tour across the United States.

Breathing a sigh of relief after making it through airport security, Jordan St. Cyr is glad to have the opportunity to join someone he looks up to on tour. The musician says he "still doesn't believe" he is going on tour with Jeremy Camp.

"This is an artist, not just an artist, a man, a person, a husband, a father, that I have looked up to for a while now. I have seen what he has walked through in his life. I am just really looking forward to hanging out with this kind of quality of person for this amount of time and just really have great conversations with this guy."

The tour is kicking off in Nashville and has tour dates until September.

For the past year, St. Cyr has been doing virtual interviews and had the opportunity to play for small crowds at churches. This month is the first time he can add a "0" to the number of people in the audience, as his previous 25-person crowd sizes from the summer will be beaten. The artist is anticipating crowd sizes in the hundreds on tour thanks to Camp's following.

While sad to leave his bustling family home, St. Cyr is excited to get back on stage.

"My wife is holding down the fort with four little crazy humans so please keep them in your thoughts and prayers."

St. Cyr's wife and four children will remain at home, but he is taking their story with him on the road. Since releasing Fires telling the story of a man in Nashville who was struggling, and his own family's difficulties, the song has given hope to others with many fans reaching out to share their own stories.

"I think it is going to be overwhelming in a positive sense," he says about seeing people in an audience. "I think it is going to be the in-person version of what we have experienced online, of just people pouring out their hearts sharing their journey right now."
