The Queen of Country Music, Dolly Parton, announced Wednesday a world tour behind the release of her highly anticipated new album, Better Day.

The tour is set to kick off July 17 in Dolly’s home state of Tennessee before coming to the Durham Performing Arts Center on August 2. Ticketing information is not yet available.

“I’m very excited, first of all, to be going back on tour at all. But I love the fans and I miss the live stage shows,” Dolly said. “With the new stage show I hope to have a lot of new things for the fans, especially all the new songs from the Better Day CD and some new and different segments in the show with a lot more fun things as well.”

Dolly will release Better Day in June or July through her own Dolly Records. The album is the follow-up to 2008′s Backwoods Barbie.

She has received eight Grammy Awards and 45 total Grammy Award nominations. She was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2011 Grammys.
