Taylor Swift to launch first national tour
Full "Fearless 2009" tour dates
Taylor Swift will launch her first nationwide tour called Fearless, which will take her to 52 cities in 38 states beginning Feb. 10 in San Antonio and stretching through the spring, summer and fall in the United States and Canada.
Kellie Pickler, Swift's friend and occasional songwriting partner, will be the supporting act for the tour. Gloriana, a new group emphasizing four-part vocal harmonies, will also be performing on all tour dates.
Headlining my own tour is a dream come true, Swift said in a statement.
This way, I can play more music every night than I ever have before. Having written my own songs, they are all stories in my head, and my goal for this tour is to bring those stories to life.
Prior to the official tour launch, Swift will headline three shows in the U.S., including two major events in Texas -- the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo on Feb. 10 and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on March 20.
She'll also perform on March 1 at the Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Fla., before heading to Australia for four concerts taking place March 5-12.
