George Strait has added Lee Ann Womack to the roster of performers for his upcoming headlining 2010 tour in support of his latest album, "Twang."As posted before, the trek, which also features Reba McEntire, kicks off January 26, 2010 in Baltimore. Dates are currently set through an April 10 performance in Des Moines, IA, with stops in 18 cities along the way.
"We're talking classic country from the source," said Womack in a press statement. "I can't imagine a better tour to be on than George Strait and Reba McEntire -- and now I'm not imagining!" "I'm trying to figure out what to wear," she added, "cause you can't out-starch George and you sure can't out-spangle Reba!"
"Twang," Strait's 26th studio album, surfaced in August 2009 and took over the No. 1 spots on The Billboard 200 and the Top Country Albums chart. The new collection follows last year's platinum-selling "Troubadour," which earned a Grammy for Best Country Album earlier this year.
McEntire, meanwhile, will hit the road in support of "Keep On Loving You," her most recent studio effort, which also hit shelves in August 2009. The album marked her first solo set to debut at No. 1 on The Billboard 200.
Last month (October 2009), Womack released a new single, "There Is a God," the lead-off to the singer's still-untitled and forthcoming seventh studio album, which is scheduled for release early next year. The track debuted at No. 60 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
George Strait, Reba McEntire & Lee Ann Womack bring their tour to the Amway Arena in Orlando, Florida on Friday February 26, 2010.
