NASHVILLE, Tenn. – (November 29, 2016) – Seven-time Grammy winner Carrie Underwood wrapped “The Storyteller Tour” last night in Salt Lake City, Utah, completing 92 shows for one million fans across seven countries since its launch in January. The tour sold out arenas across the U.S. and Canada including New York City (Madison Square Garden), Los Angeles (STAPLES Center), Nashville (Bridgestone Arena), Toronto, (Air Canada Center), and many more. In addition to the US and Canada, she traveled overseas to Sweden, Norway, Scotland, England, and Ireland as part of Country to Country (C2C), Europe’s biggest country music festival. Watch highlights from last night’s finale in Salt Lake City HERE and highlights from the fall leg of the tour HERE.

Named Billboard’s #1 country tour of the first half of 2016, and one of Forbes’ 10 hottest tours of the fall, “The Storyteller Tour” travelled over 50,000 miles among 18 trucks and 8 buses. Each show consisted of 112 automation cues controlling all elements of the 150 foot-long in-the-round stage including 7 stage elevators, 3 rings of video screen, a revolving central stage, and mirror ball, through 56 axes of motion. The tour used over 51,000 pounds of carbon dioxide, and dropped over 400 pounds of Mylar. Carrie’s wardrobe, created by Emmy-winning costume designer Marina Toybina, consisted of 32 custom made costumes and 214 pieces of jewelry, allowing for different outfit combinations across the show’s 5 Acts in each city. The tour’s Creative Director was Barry Lather (Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Usher, Michael Jackson) and Butch Allen (Metallica, The Eagles, Eric Church, No Doubt) was the Production & Lighting Designer.

The tour, named after Carrie’s Platinum-selling Storyteller album, had concert review critics applauding her confidence and command over the massive in-the-round 360-degree stage production claiming it highlighted Carrie as never-before seen:

“…the in-the-round setting provides each concert goer with the best experience possible. Simpler still is the storytelling aspect of the show and country music’s reliance on conveying memorable stories in song.”- RollingStoneCountry.com

“…one of the strongest and most engaging performers in today’s music.” – Pittsburgh Tribune

“….from a pure standpoint of vocals and showmanship, no other female vocalist comes close!” – Sounds Like Nashville

“Lasers and swaying spotlights and fireworks and explosions all added to the spectacle. But make no mistake, Underwood was the star of the show.” – Florida Times-Union

 “The most stunning part of the production however, remains Underwood’s voice, strong and nuanced.” – The Boston Globe

“Carrie has developed a fantastic stage show … that manages to be both visually dazzling and intimate at the same time.”- Country music historian Bob Oermann

“… a no-expense-spared spectacle that highlights her approachable beauty, her roar of a voice and a substantive set of songs…”- Atlanta Journal Constitution

“Up-tempo or ballad, Underwood makes sure that every song has its moment – and it’s clear that now is hers.” – The Tennessean

A donation of $1 from each ticket sold on the U.S. dates of “The Storyteller Tour” will be contributed to the C.A.T.S (Checotah Animal, Town, and School) Foundation, established by Carrie in 2009, to help aid its causes including Checotah, Oklahoma’s education and literacy programs.

HOUSTON (OCTOBER 21, 2016) – Today, The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation and CALIA by Carrie Underwood, a fitness and lifestyle brand created in partnership with DICK’S Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) and multi-platinum superstar Carrie Underwood, announced a $100,000 Sports Matter grant to support girls youth and high school sports in Houston’s Aldine Independent School District (A.I.S.D.).

Since 2014, The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation has pledged over $50 million to support teams and raise awareness of the importance of youth sports across the country through its Sports Matter initiative.

Earlier this year CALIA by Carrie Underwood, in partnership with The DICK’S Foundation, announced plans to donate $500,000 in Sports Matter grants to girls youth sports teams across the country. The first grant was awarded in June in Underwood’s hometown to Checotah (Okla.) School District Girls’ Athletic programs.

Today, in Houston, Underwood and The DICK’S Foundation surprised A.I.S.D. female student-athletes and coaches with a $100,000 Sports Matter grant during a CALIA by Carrie Underwood meet and greet and fitness event at a DICK’S Sporting Goods new store grand opening celebration at the Baybrook Mall.

“I am so honored to partner with The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation as we continue to give back to girls sports teams across the country,” said Underwood. “Through today’s donation, we aim to support the girls’ athletic programs in Houston, providing many girls with the opportunity to participate in sports.”

The DICK’S Foundation will be partnering with Athletic Director, Richard Delgado, and Program Director of Resource Development, Stacey Smith, to allocate the Sports Matter grant across A.I.S.D. to the girls’ sports teams.

“At DICK’S, we believe sports make people better, and through this partnership, we are proud to provide more opportunities for girls to play sports throughout the Aldine Independent School District,” said DICK’S Chairman & CEO Edward W. Stack. “The DICK’S Foundation and our CALIA by Carrie Underwood brand look forward to this $100,000 grant making a difference in many girls’ lives.”

For more information on Sports Matter and CALIA by Carrie Underwood, please visit SportsMatter.org and CaliaStudio.com, respectively.

As part of the celebration, Carrie gave a very special performance of “Like I’ll Never Love You Again” alongside The Love Junkies, made up of award-winning singer/songwriters Hillary Lindsey, Lori McKenna, and Liz Rose, who wrote the song for Carrie’s Storyteller album.

CMT’s “Artists of the Year” special was just a quick break in Carrie’s massive Storyteller Tour. She began this week performing to a sold-out crowd of over 16,000 fans at St. Paul’s Xcel Energy Center and she continues tonight with another sold out crowd at Cincinnati’s U.S. Bank Arena.

Billboard ranked “The Storyteller Tour – Stories in the Round” the #1 country tour for the first half of 2016 which has performed for more than 800,000 fans since launching on January 30. Fans and music critics alike have praised Carrie’s stand-out performances and the tour’s dynamic production.
