Background
The tour was announced in August 2016. McBride was in the middle of wrapping up a summer festival outing, which would immediately lead into the tour. The singer was also the headlining act for "Band Against Cancer". The tour commences in October 2016 with High Valley, Hailey Whitters and Shelly Fairchild as the rotating opening acts. In December 2016, McBride announced the second leg of the tour, in conjunction with CMT's "Next Women of Country".[2] The singer was joined by spring country artist Lauren Alaina, Post Monroe and Maggie Rose. The tour concluded in March 2017.
Speaking on the tour, McBride stated:
"With so much tragedy and uncertainty in the world, our family is watching less news and spending more time listening to music, sharing stories over dinner and loving each other. I want this concert to be a place where people can share the common experience of music and how it can work its magic, as only music can.[3]"

gollark: The Plethora flight example uses a block scanner to detect ground instead of just generally slowing falling, but this is too slow in practice.
gollark: ni-ctl's safety brake is also not entirely reliable and should be fixed somehow.
gollark: ni-ctl just boosts upward every time you're below 256.
gollark: I could probably improve that.
gollark: flyto_good does the ascension and movement thing in parallel, which is possibly bad.
