Country star Martina McBride has added several dates to her summer/fall "Waking Up Laughing Tour," which began July 11 in Clarkston, MI. The summer tour will run through the middle of October and will play mostly outdoor amphitheatres. Chris Young and Jason Michael Carroll are listed as opening acts, and Jack Ingram is announced as special guest. On the show Martina performs some of her best known songs like "Independence Day", "Wild Angels" and "Concrete Angel" as well as new songs like "Tryin' to Find a Reason", which she duets with her brother Marty Schiff. McBride's album "Waking Up Laughing" surfaced last year and debuted at number 3 on The Billboard 200 chart. Having been recognised as the Country Music Association vocalist on 4 occasions leaves little to destiny. With 16 million copies of her albums sold and 22 top 10 singles in a career that spans 15 years, certainly Martina has given a lot to music.
