Following in the footsteps of Martina McBride, Jennifer Nettles and Kelsea Ballerini, Sara Evans will serve as the headliner for the 4th annual CMT Next Women of Country Tour.
The 15-date tour kicks off on Feb. 12 in New York City and caps on April 7 in Mobile, Ala.
RaeLynn and Kalie Shorr will serve as openers.
“I absolutely love that CMT champions female artists with the Next Women of Country Tour and am so honored to be headlining it in 2018,” said Sara. “I can’t wait to hit the road with RaeLynn and Kalie. They are both incredible singers, songwriters, and overall artists and we’re going to have a blast.”
