Fresh off the finish of their Las Vegas residency, Rascal Flatts are getting ready to tour the United States this summer. On Monday (March 7), the "I Like the Sound of That" band announced a schedule of 31 North American shows, with a little help from Kelsea Ballerini and "Fix" singer Chris Lane.
According to a press release, Rascal Flatts' tour with Ballerini and Lane is set to kick off on June 17 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Though venues are still forthcoming, the band has confirmed over 30 shows, including stops in Cleveland, St. Louis, Dallas, Philadelphia and more.
Reinvigorated off their Vegas residency at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, bassist Jay DeMarcus said that fans can expect a "change of pace" during the 2016 tour.
"It's really important to us that each year our shows are fresh and exciting for our fans," he said in a statement. "We put a lot of thought into how to do that this year and mixing it up in Vegas was really fun so we decided to continue with this new change of pace out on the road this summer. We are so pumped because no one has ever seen Rascal Flatts like this before and we're really excited to have such great support this year with Kelsea and Chris too, it's going to be a blast!"
