Jackson Taps Evans, Wrights For
Spring Tour
The initial
leg of Alan Jackson's What I Do tour will open
April 22 in Las Vegas, with Sara Evans and the
Wrights in tow. At deadline, 15 dates are
confirmed though a May 22 show in Mansfield,
Mass., with more than 40 expected in total.
The run comes in
support of Jackson's 2004 Arista Nashville album
"What I Do," which opened at No. 1 on The
Billboard 200 and Billboard's Top Country Albums
chart. Evans, meanwhile, will be out behind the
2003 set "Restless" (RCA Nashville), which
debuted at No. 20 on The Billboard 200 and No. 3
on the country tally.
Husband
and wife duo the Wrights will make their
recorded debut with the May 3 ACR/RCA release of
"Down This Road." Their inclusion on the tour
was something of an easy decision for Jackson,
who is Adam Wright's uncle.
