Despite being one of R&B’s most underrated gems, Chante Moore is easily one of the most consistent concert draws of her class thanks to a diehard fanbase that continues to pack venues in support of her runs on the live music circuit.

In late 2023 the R&B diva announced her latest Stateside jaunt – the ‘Sway and Slay Tour’ – would see dates spill over into 2024 with major U.S. markets like New York, Boston, Nashville, and Atlanta on the list.
