The news comes following the group’s surprise reunion last month at the 51st Annual CMA Awards when they presented Duo of the Year during the ceremony, hinting at a return. After the show, the duo surprised guests at the Big Machine Label Group (BMLG) after party by performing “Baby Girl” and “Stay.” Earlier this week, they appeared on the syndicated The Bobby Bones Show in which they made the tour announcement and spoke more in depth about their reunion.
