These past couple days rumors were buzzing around Nashville about a mysterious pop-up concert at The Ryman, who were Sam & Audrey? Tickets were just $20 and went on sale Monday for a show the following Tuesday. It seems Tim McGraw was too excited and spilled the beans before the on-sale time and the show was sold out instantly. The $20 price marked their 20th anniversary.
At the concert last night, Tim & Faith entered the stage from opposite sides of The Ryman and came together to sing “It’s Your Love” before Faith announced…
Ok, so we are going back on the road, on tour”. Tim added a bit of humor saying “We got all y’all together just to tell y’all that, now we’re going home.”
The announcement marks the 10th anniversary of their 2006 Soul2Soul II tour; which is the largest grossing country tour ever, topping $100 million. Keeping the name, the Soul2Soul World Tour will launch in New Orleans April 7th and includes 65 North American cities. Presale begins this Friday, October 7th for fan club members and American Express cardholders and sales begin for the general public October 14th.
