The Band Perry will begin their first headlining tour this fall in Sweden. The We Are Pioneers Tour kicks off on Nov. 8 in Gothenburg and will continue through 10 European countries (20 shows total) before returning to North America in 2014.

Easton Corbin and Canadian country singer Lindsay Ell will open the North American dates, which begin on Jan. 9 in British Columbia. In total, the Band Perry announced 50 dates, including 19 in the United States. The U.S. run begins on Feb. 6 in Independence, Mo. and includes mostly midwestern states before a few shows in Georgia and Florida to round out the run. More dates are expected to be announced soon.

In April, the group told Taste of Country they were preparing for a headlining tour. "We're already talking about set design," Kimberly Perry said. "Our goal is to just come out of the gate running. We're excited about some of the ideas."

'Pioneer' is the family band's latest album, featuring the hit songs 'Better Dig Two' and 'Done.' 'Don't Let Me Be Lonely' is their current single.

Several of the February and March tour dates come on Thursdays. Kimberly Perry was rumored to be entertaining a job as a judge on the 'American Idol' panel next season. If the show airs on Thursday nights once again, the announcement would all but kill that rumor.
