Fresh on the heels of her new album, we get the official announcement of Carrie Underwood’s 2016 tour.

Those tour dates include three stops in Pennsylvania and one in the Washington, D.C., area.

The official name of the tour is The Storyteller Tour – Stories in the Round. That’s because it will be Carrie’s first tour where the stage will be in the middle of the arena tour.

And check this out, Voice fans. One of the opening acts on the North American tour dates will be the Swon Brothers.

Now that’s quite a tour gig to land. Easton Corbin is the other special guest.

Says Carrie in the press release announcing the tour: “I am so blessed to have this career and get to do to the things I do, but there is nothing like that moment when I get to step onto the stage to sing and all the fans are singing along with me.”

Tickets for the tour go on sale Friday, Nov. 6. Fans who purchase Carrie’s new album through her website will get early access when it comes to purchasing tickets.
