2010 Teen Choice Award nominees Gloriana are set to kick off their Long Hot Summer Tour 2010 June 24th in Grand Junction, CO at Country Jam USA. Always eager to engage their fans, Gloriana held a contest and a live chat where fans got the chance to name their tour, the 40-date Long Hot Summer Tour 2010 will make stops at major Fairs and Festivals across the country as well as headlining performances including at the Iowa Speedway on July 11th and at the University of Wisconsin on September 1st. Gloriana recently wrapped up their opening slot on Taylor Swift’s FEARLESS Tour.

“We are really looking forward to this tour – with longer sets and performances in new cities across the country – it’s a great opportunity to get out there some more and meet the country music fans who have already shown us so much support,” said Mike Gossin. “This is definitely going to be a Summer to remember and we cannot wait,” added Rachel Reinert.

Gloriana recently won two fan-voted Awards with the Academy of Country Music Award for Top New Vocal Group of the Year and the American Music Award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year. Gloriana is now nominated for a 2010 Teen Choice Award for Choice Music: Country Group. Fans can vote for Gloriana at teenchoiceawards.com. The 12th edition of the Teen Choice Awards will take place at The Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, August 8th and will air on FOX the very next day on Monday, August 9th at 8pm EST (check your local listings). The Teen Choice Awards honors the year’s biggest achievements in music, movies, sports, television, fashion and more, as voted on by teens aged 13–19. The winners are awarded with authentic mini size surfboards designed with a fresh summertime theme every year.
