Little Big Town‘s Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Phillip Sweet and Jimi Westbrook and longtime friends/collaborators Sugarland joined forces on Sunday night’s CMT Music Awards to world premiere their new song “Take Me Home.”
Originally written and released by Phil Collins in 1985, the fresh rendition served as a homecoming of sorts for the two country giants, as they last shared the CMTMA stage in 2008 for a rendition of “Life In A Northern Town.”
They are taking the fun on the road as well, as they’ll also embark on the new “Take Me Home Tour” together with support from The Castellows beginning Oct. 24 in Greenville, South Carolina. The trek will visit Boston, Pittsburgh, Austin, Fort Worth, Biloxi and more through mid-December, before concluding Dec. 13 at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The closing night is a special Nashville homecoming for the band, as it’ll be their first show in town since 2017’s iconic sold-out, 10-night residency at the Ryman Auditorium.
Various ticket pre-sales for the “Take Me Home Tour” will run throughout the week, ahead of the general sale beginning on Friday, April 12 at littlebigtown.com.
“Last night felt like a real homecoming for us and a full circle moment,” says Little Big Town. “When we toured with Sugarland last, we would all be backstage harmonizing different cover songs to try and surprise the audience every night. There’s something about this song that feels so nostalgic of that time. It really is like coming home. The ‘Take Me Home Tour’ feels like a celebration of being a band for 25 years and we’re so excited to throw this party with our great friends Sugarland. We’ll both be playing all our biggest hits and then some. Can’t wait to see everyone!”
