Carrie Underwood is hitting the road! The powerhouse country artist announced on her social media channels on Monday morning (May 16): “I am so excited to announce that I will officially be hitting the road for THE DENIM & RHINESTONES TOUR! …LET’S GOO! 💜💎”

Underwood’s tour comes as fans eagerly await the release of her upcoming album, Denim & Rhinestones. The 12-track project is one that Underwood promises will “cover a lot of ground.” She previously explained in the album’s trailer: “We have a lot of songs that could be kind of considered ‘throwback’ type songs, but they sound so super fresh. These are just influences that are in me and work their way out, and I just decided this time not to get in my way. I feel like this one ended up being a bigger reflection of me as a person, as an artist. I grew up listening to so many different kinds of music. I feel like that is extremely evident in this body of work.”

Denim & Rhinestones is Underwood’s first country album in four years. Though she’s kept busy with some singles and collaborations — including “If I Didn’t Love You” with Jason Aldean, “Stretchy Pants” and “Only Us,” a duet with Dan + Shay for the Dear Evan Hansen soundtrack — Underwood hasn’t released a country album since Cry Pretty in 2018. She eleased her holiday album, My Gift, in 2020 with a special edition in 2021, and My Savior, her debut gospel album last year.

So far, Underwood has released “Ghost Story” — along with a chilling music video — “Crazy Angels” and the title track of her new collection. The full album is set to release on June 10. Underwood’s “Denim & Rhinestones Tour” comes at the heels of her jaw-dropping Las Vegas Residency, REFLECTION, hosted at Resorts World Theater. See her tour announcement here:
