Underwood Tour Opening In March

Carrie Underwood has a spring headlining tour in the works. Her Play On Tour, hydrated by vitaminwater®, opens March 11 in Reading, PA, and will hit more than 45 dates across North America. The arena run goes through the end of May and will feature special guests Craig Morgan and Sons of Sylvia. Tickets for all shows go on sale starting next Friday, December 18.

Underwood spent this past year writing and recording her third studio album Play On, performing only a few select concerts. Her previous tour, 2008’s highly successful Carnival Ride Tour wrapped after 137 shows with 1.2 million fans in attendance.

Play On debuted at the top of both the country and pop album sales charts and has sold over 700,000 copies in 5 weeks. The release earned the highest first-week sales of the year for any solo country artist at that point and makes Carrie the only country act in Nielsen SoundScan history to achieve first-week sales of more than 300,000 units on each of their first three albums. Her 2005 debut, Some Hearts, is seven-times Platinum, and 2007’s Carnival Ride is triple-Platinum.
