SYCO Entertainment and FremantleMedia have announced the full lineup for the upcoming America's Got Talent Live tour, which includes a performance at Schermerhorn Symphony Center on Wednesday, October 9, at 7:30 p.m. Headlining the tour will be Season 8 winner Kenichi Ebina, who mesmerized America with unique dance performances that combine illusions, mime, special effects, sound, light and video.

"I still can't believe I won America's Got Talent," Ebina said. "Being a part of Season 8 at Radio City Music Hall was so much fun, and I can't wait to take my act on the road and perform live for the fans who voted for me from their homes across America."

Additional acts on the tour will include:

· Collins Key - the gifted 17-year-old with an engaging expression of the art of magic

· Jimmy Rose - the U.S. Marine Corps veteran and Kentuckian who learned to play guitar and write his own songs while serving in Iraq

· Taylor Williamson - the stand-up comic who kept America laughing with tales of his awkward dating life and ability to charm judge Heidi Klum

· Cami Bradley - the singer, songwriter and pianist who warmed America's heart

· KriStef Brothers - the duo who combine comedy and acrobatics into a one-of-a-kind act

· Tone The Chiefrocca - the songwriter and rapper from Inglewood, California, who had all of America singing the one-hit-wonder "B-Double-O-T-Y"

America's Got Talent has been TV's No. 1-rated summer reality series for eight straight years. Fans who have been following the remarkable talent discovered this season at the iconic Radio City Music Hall will now have an opportunity to experience their favorite acts up-close and personal.
