Craig Morgan has announced that he will be continuing his Operation FINALLY Home Welcomes American Stories Tour with Craig Morgan and special guests this fall. Morgan originally embarked on the tour last fall, using his shows to celebrate American values through song and storytelling.

“I’ve been fortunate to have had the opportunity to play massive arenas in front of thousands upon thousands of people but there is something really special about these smaller, intimate shows where I’m sitting onstage with my guitar and sharing stories from my heart,” said Craig. “I’m bringing out guests and we’re talking and singing and telling stories about our country and God and family and all the things that are important to us.”

The limited-run tour will kick off at the end of September in Hopewell, Virginia and wrap up on Veteran’s Day with a special celebration in Nashville, Tennessee. Special guests for select shows include songwriter Marla Cannon-Goodman, Veterans’ family activist Taya Kyle, multi-platinum selling producer and songwriter Phil O’Donnell, Third Day front man Mac Powell, Medal of Honor recipient Clint Romesha and Morgan’s daughter, singer/songwriter Aly Beaird.

An army veteran himself, Morgan has dedicated much of his career to honoring the troops. He first volunteered with the United Service Organizations in 2002 and recently returned from his eighth USO tour earlier this spring, marking his fourteenth overseas tour for the troops. Morgan also received the 2006 USO Merit Award for his support of U.S. troops and their families. As Operation FINALLY HOME’s 2017 Ambassador, Craig has partnered with the non-profit organization to provide mortgage-free homes to veterans and their families from select dates during his 2017 tour.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 16 at craigmorgan.com. Additional dates and guests will be announced later.
