"We have the best fans in the world, who have been with us through our entire journey and we are so excited to celebrate with them by going back on the road and showcasing an exciting new show, said Tim McGraw and Faith Hill. It s always great when we get to work together and it s been a while since we got to do that. It was also announced by NBC S THE VOICE, for the first time ever, that the show will feature a duo as key advisers this season. Hill and McGraw will prepare artists for the high-stakes knockout rounds airing this October. McGraw and Hill have been dominating the music charts since the early 90s. They began touring together in 1996 on McGraw s Spontaneous Combustion tour. In 2000 they created the Soul2Soul franchise with their record-breaking Soul2Soul tour, becoming that year s top grossing and most successful U.S. tour. Their success continued in 2006-2007 when Soul2Soul II returned to the road, which was the most attended tour of the year in any musical genre and remains the highest grossing multi-year North American tour in country music history. Pollstar Magazine named it their Major Tour of 2006, beating out Madonna, The Rolling Stones and The Red Hot Chili Peppers for the honor. 1
