The country singer-songwriter shared with a heartfelt video on Instagram Monday (Aug. 24) that she’s planning to hit the road in support of her new debut album, Long Way Home . Featuring old family footage of Lefty singing and playing guitar as a child as well as clips of her recent performances following the runaway success of her smash hit single, “Boston,” the clip reveals that the trek will kick off Jan. 9 in Detroit and weave through North American cities such as Montreal, Toronto, Philadelphia, Houston, Nashville and Chicago.
And, yes, Lefty will be making a stop in the namesake of her Billboard Hot 100 No. 3 hit, with the Illinois native planning to play MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston on Jan. 17. The Long Way Home Tour will conclude on Feb. 20 at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago.
“LONG WAY HOME TOUR!!!” Lefty wrote in her caption. “I’m so so excited to be back on the road and sing these new songs with you guys in person! Thank you for the love on my debut album (eek) your support means EVERYTHING to me. i love you and i can’t wait to sing and dance soon !!! ILYYYYYYY.”
Coming after a string of festival appearances, the Long Way Home Tour builds upon the momentum of “Boston,” which has been steadily climbing the charts since it first debuted on the Hot 100 at No. 95 in April after dropping in March. In the first week of August, the track reached its current peak at No. 3 on the chart. It appears on Lefty’s debut LP Long Way Home , which arrived three days prior to the tour announcement.
