The Prince Royce tour through Spain and Italy surpassed all expectations, selling out all ten concerts on the continent.
"It has been an incredible experience! I am so thankful for the love they have shown me in Europe. It is the first time I ever visit Europe and to be able to sell out all my shows here is a blessing!" stated Prince Royce.
Prince Royce has conquered the radio airwaves in Spain and Italy with hit single "Stand By Me", gaining widespread popular appeal.
This week, the young Dominican American from the Bronx returns to the United States to promote follow-up single "Corazón Sin Cara" with TV appearances on Despierta America (August 19th on Univision), Escandalo TV (August 30th on Telefutura) and Esta Noche Tu Night (August 19th on Mega TV).
