Hannah Harper is showing no signs of slowing down after her breakthrough year on American Idol. Less than six months after winning Season 24, the country singer has announced another major step in her career: a 22-date headlining tour scheduled for 2027.
Titled the Behind This Guitar Tour, the new run will give fans across the South, Midwest and East Coast another opportunity to see Harper perform live. It follows a packed year that has already included her first headlining tour and opening dates with country star Brad Paisley.
For fans who missed her shows in 2026, the announcement brings plenty of new opportunities to catch her on the road.

From ‘String Cheese’ to a New 22-Date Tour
Harper wasted little time making the most of her American Idol win.
One of her first major purchases after the victory was a tour bus of her own, which helped her get straight to work on the road. She subsequently launched her first-ever headlining tour, the String Cheese Tour — a name inspired by the song that went viral during her American Idol audition.
Alongside her own shows, the 26-year-old also joined Brad Paisley as an opening act at select stops on his 2026 tour.
Now, Harper is preparing to build on that momentum with a new tour bearing a more personal title. She announced the Behind This Guitar Tour on Monday, November 9, revealing a schedule of 22 performances running from February through May 2027.
Hannah Harper Explains the Meaning Behind ‘Behind This Guitar’
The singer made clear that the new tour is about more than simply bringing her songs to different cities. She wants audiences to get to know the person and story behind the music.
“Y’all got to know a little piece of my story through American Idol, but there’s so much more I can’t wait to share with you,” Harper wrote in her Instagram announcement. “The Behind This Guitar Tour is a chance to invite y’all a little closer into my world.”
She also expressed gratitude for the support her family and music have received since her rise to national attention.
“Thank you for embracing my family and giving our music a place in your lives. We don’t take a bit of it for granted. So thankful the Lord has blessed us with another year of doing what we love. See y’all down the road!”
The message suggests that Harper sees the upcoming shows as an opportunity to share more of her personal journey with the fans who have followed her since American Idol.
