Trace Adkins will embark on his Songs & Stories tour of theaters in March. According to a press release, "These intimate evenings of powerful performances will incorporate stories, both humorous and meaningful, that pay homage to Adkins' working-man roots and rich musical heritage." The tour was inspired by Adkins' CMT Invitation Only which aired last year to coincide with the release of his Proud to Be Here album. In addition to songs from the album and previous hits from his 20-year career, the special included a Q&A session. The tour kicks off March 8 in Des Moines, Iowa, and is currently scheduled to close on May 17 in Atlanta.
