Fans of Dolly Parton will have additional opportunities to see the country music legend as she tours in support of her critically acclaimed new album 'Better Day.' Parton has added a second U.S. leg to her tour and will perform at six venues in the south this fall.

The summer portion of Parton's tour kicks off in her home state of Tennessee on July 17 and concludes two-and-a-half weeks later in Georgia on August 3. During this leg, she'll perform for the very first time at the historic Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles for two consecutive nights.

From there, Parton's tour will head overseas for shows in England, Ireland, Denmark and Sweden. Parton then returns to the U.S. in the fall for a half dozen dates starting in Texas and finishing in Florida. Parton wraps up her tour in Australia in November.

'Better Day' is Parton's first new studio album since 2008's 'Backwood Barbie,' and is the fourth release on her independent label Dolly Records.
