Mitchell Tenpenny is launching his new headline “Speed of Light Tour” on Feb. 6 in Rockford, Illinois with special guest Jake Banfield.

The upcoming tour, which will run through the end of the year, is named after new music Tenpenny is set to release this spring, and the announcement comes on the heels of a new single he released last Friday, “You Phase” penned by Tenpenny, Andy Albert and Corey Crowder.
