Kelley announces solo tour
The news comes shortly after one-third of Lady A said he would release an album.
The Driver Tour starts Nov. 28 in Cleveland and ends Jan. 28 in Las Vegas. Maren Morris, who hails from Texas, will open the shows.
"I've played some great shows at arenas and amphitheaters, but I'm definitely looking forward to getting into clubs with people grabbing on your legs and being able to see every face," said Kelley. "I can't wait to get right up there in it with the fans and try out some of this new stuff we've been working on. I'm pretty excited about just scrapping the set list and playing whatever we feel like playing."
Kelley will perform "The Driver" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon tomorrow with Dierks Bentley and Eric Paslay who also lent their voices to the track. The song is the lead single from Kelley's upcoming solo project and is now available at country radio.
