Seven-time Grammy winner and ACM Female Vocalist of the Year nominee Carrie Underwood, has just announced The Storyteller Tour- Stories in the Round will extend through the fall including a stop at BB&T Center on November 17. The in-the-round arena tour launched to rave reviews in January and has already played sold out shows across the U.S.
“I always love being on the road performing for my fans,” shares Underwood, “but something about this tour feels more magnetic than ever. Having a 360-degree view of the audience gives me the opportunity to connect with more fans and feed off their energy. I can’t wait to continue this tour into the fall!”
The North American tour, promoted by AEG Live, will include special guests Easton Corbin and The Swon Brothers.
