Storyteller tour

Anchorage, AK (May 16, 2016) – Seven-time Grammy winner Carrie Underwood’s Storyteller Tour has added a stop in Anchorage, AK at Alaska Airlines Center on August 31, 2016. This will be Underwood’s first trip to Alaska. The tour launched to rave reviews in January and has already played sold out shows across the U.S. and Europe, including a crowd of over 17,000 at Boston’s TD Garden.

“I always love being on the road performing for my fans,” shares Underwood, “but something about this tour feels more magnetic than ever. I can’t wait to continue this tour into the fall!”

The Alaska show is promoted by Invictus Entertainment Group.  For information on fan club and D2C pre-sale opportunities and VIP packages go to www.carrieunderwood.fm.

A donation of $1 from each ticket sold at the U.S. dates of The Storyteller Tour will be contributed to the C.A.T.S Foundation to help aid its causes including Checotah, Oklahoma’s education and literacy programs. Established in 2009, the C.A.T.S.

Each of Carrie’s three previous headline arena tours, 2008’s Carnival Ride Tour, the Play On Tour in 2010, and 2012-2013’s Blown Away Tour played for over one million fans. When the Blown Away Tour wrapped in 2013, Carrie had performed 112 shows in 110 cities across three continents and six countries, including sold-out shows at London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall, and two nights at the Sydney Opera House in Sydney, Australia.

The tour is in promotion of Carrie’s album, Storyteller, which was heralded by Rolling Stone as “the most anticipated country album of the year.” The album was produced by Jay Joyce, Mark Bright, and Zach Crowell with six of its 13 songs co-written by Carrie, including the #1 hits “Smoke Break” and “Heartbeat.”
