Vine star Lauren Giraldo is moving full speed ahead into the musical realm. The Miami native, who acted in the Vine original series Camp Unplug and is also set to produce a docuseries about Latino culture in South Florida, has announced today that she will release her first single on Jan. 27, with her debut EP to drop in mid-2017.

Tickets for The Lauren Giraldo Tour, which kicks off in San Francisco on Feb. 15 and concludes in New York City on March 7, are available here.
“I have waited so long to have the opportunity to release my own original music and have poured my heart and soul into creating it,” Giraldo said in a statement. “My single is so close to my heart, everything from the lyrics to the artwork is based on personal experiences and I can’t wait to share it.” In past months, Giraldo has released cover songs on her YouTube channel — which counts roughly 400,000 subscribers — by artists like Rihanna, Ariana Grande, and Lana Del Rey.
