The multi-platinum selling singer announced his Songs & Stories Tour today!

Adkins will hit the road starting March 8th in Iowa. The fan club pre-sale for the March dates began today, while the general public sale will start Friday, January 27th. For the April and May dates, tickets will go on sale for fan club members on January 30th and for the general public on February 3rd. More dates are expected to be added so stay tuned!

The idea for the Songs & Stories Tour was sparked by Adkins’ CMT: Invitation Only special, where he performed some of his biggest hits from his impressive twenty year music career and took part in a Q&A session with the fans. Thereafter, he began planning this tour which is slated to be intimate performances at some of the country’s most beautiful theaters. As with Adkins song catalog, you can expect him to share both deeply meaningful and humorous stories.

Read on for the full story and tour dates…

The country star explained:

“I’ve had many narrow escapes and blessings in my life. The right song at the right time has been my saving grace and that’s something I have in common with the audience. Sharing meaningful songs, stories and some laughs ‘around the campfire’ is the Country music tradition and I’m looking forward to it.”

Fans can get involved too! You can share your personal stories as well as the songs that have inspired you or made an impact on your lives. Check out the Songs & Stories page over at www.traceadkins.com.
