Development

Maren Morris announced the tour on January 17, 2019, a day prior to the release of "Girl". [1] The tour was set to visit North America, Europe and Oceania.

Critical reception

Reviewing the opening show in Chicago, The Early Registration wrote that Morris called "her own shots" and "cooking up own flavor". [3] Dave Paulson of Tennessean described the show as a "pocket-sized arena spectacle". [4] Jeremy Burchard of Taste Of Country stated that Morris found the "strike to balance" between "burgeoning superstar" and "humble songwriter" during her show in Nashville. [5] Katie Boudreau of 303 Magazine praised Morris' stage presence and vocal power, and stated that Morris delivered a "knockout" performance. [6] Reviewing the show in Los Angeles, Chris Willman of Variety noted "Make Out with Me" and "RSVP" performances as "the most theatrical" and "arguably best", called her "the next JoJo". [7]
