Ryan Adams & Cardinals Plot Summer Jaunt

Alt-country rocker Ryan Adams has booked a 12-city summer tour with his band the Cardinals, culminating with a stop at this year's Lollapalooza festival in Chicago.

The itinerary includes a return visit to Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, where in 2002, Adams became incensed when a fan shouted a request for similarly named rock act Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69."

After releasing three separate studio albums last year, Adams has yet to reveal his next recording project.

Here are Ryan Adams' tour dates:
July 20: Sayreville, N.J. (Starland Ballroom)
July 21: Baltimore (Sonar)
July 22: Norfolk, Va. (NorVa)
July 23: Charlottesville, Va. (Pavilion)
July 25: Knoxville, Tenn. (Bijou House)
July 27: Myrtle Beach, S.C. (House of Blues)
July 28: Charleston, S.C. (Music Hall)
July 29: Atlanta (Tabernacle)
Aug. 1: Nashville (Ryman Auditorium)
Aug. 2: St. Louis (Pageant)
Aug. 3: Indianapolis (the Vogue)
Aug. 4: Chicago (Grand Park; Lollapalooza)
