On the heels of her first GRAMMY nomination, the Iowa-born, Nashville-based rising country star Hailey Whitters announced her debut headline HEARTLAND Tour will kick off on February 4, 2022 with a show at Wooly’s in Des Moines, IA. The HEARTLAND Tour will make stops in Chicago, New York, and Philadelphia, and will lead into a festival-filled year with performances at the C2C: Country To Country Festival, Stagecoach Festival, Tortuga Music Festival and more. Members of Whitters’ The Heartlanders fan club will receive an early access presale today (11/30) at 10 a.m. (local time), as a Spotify presale will occur tomorrow (12/1) ahead of a general on-sale Friday (12/3).

Last week, Whitters received her first-ever GRAMMY nomination for Song of the Year for “A Beautiful Noise,” which was written by Ruby Amanfu, Brandi Carlile, Brandy Clark, Alicia Keys, Hillary Lindsey, Lori McKenna, Linda Perry and Hailey Whitters, and performed by Alicia Keys and Brandi Carlile.
Whitters is currently in the midst of Midland’s THE LAST RESORT TOUR which will appear at Nashville’s iconic Ryman Auditorium later this week on December 1 and 2, and continue on through Atlanta, Houston, and Austin. Find a full list of dates below.
"I've been dreaming about one day playing my own headlining tour since the early days of cover bar gigs and graveyard shifts in a 15-passenger van,” explains Whitters. “It's been a long road comin' and I've been fortunate enough to have folks like Midland, Luke Combs, and Maren Morris bring me on their tours and give me 30 minutes to play and introduce myself to their fans in some bucket list venues across the country. I'm so excited to get to now play my own headlining set for fans and give back all that they've given me while chasing this dream. They're the reason I get to do this and I hope to create an experience and a night they won't ever forget. I'm playing some of my favorite cities and looking forward to seeing a lot of familiar faces.”
Earlier this year, Whitters earned her first-ever CMT Music Award nomination for Breakthrough Video of the Year for “Fillin’ My Cup” (feat. Little Big Town) and in June was named this year’s inaugural Opry NextStage artist. Her critically-acclaimed deluxe album LIVING THE DREAM was released in February via Pigasus Records/Songs & Daughters/Big Loud Records and was reviewed by NPR’s Fresh Air who said the record is "...more proof of how good and how important Hailey Whitters has become," and adds, "As both a writer and a singer, Whitters has rapidly proven to be one of the most interesting voices in country music.”
