Tim McGraw will celebrate his new album Southern Voice with a concert for select fans in Chicago on release day, Oct. 20. It is one of a handful of fall dates on the singer’s schedule, with other stops including Las Vegas (10/23) and Highland, CA (11/19). But fans can listen to the release a week early via AOL’s The Boot.
The Curb Records artist is set for two nights on CBS-TV’s Late Show with David Letterman (Mon., Oct. 12; Fri, Oct. 16), and he will follow the Oct. 12 show with a Live On Letterman exclusive concert for CBS.com and CBS Radio Country stations. As the fourth artist to play the Late Show’s live concert series, he joins a select list of artists including Paul McCartney, Pearl Jam and Elvis Costello.
McGraw teamed with longtime collaborator producer Byron Gallimore for his first studio effort since 2007’s Let It Go. The lead single “Business Doing Pleasure With You” will be followed at radio by the album’s title track.
According to McGraw’s Web site, a 2010 tour is also in the works.
