American music icon WYNONNA will be at the Morrison Center in Boise on Friday, February 6, 2015 with her "Wynonna and Friends: Stories & Song" tour. With her one-of-a-kind powerhouse voice and engaging storytelling flair, WYNONNA--joined by her 3-piece band including her husband, producer and award-winning artist Cactus Moser--will share with audiences the personal stories behind what inspired her to record the songs from her 30-year platinum career.

"The concept for the 'Stories & Song' tour has been a dream of mine for many years and will be unlike any tour I've ever done before," explains WYNONNA about the inspiration for this special tour. "My husband and professional partner, Cactus Moser, and I have put this show together and, along with the band [The Big Noise], we all feel a renewed passion and we believe that this music is being celebrated in a whole new way. That gives me a great deal of hope and it is my prayer that others who come to our shows will experience that hope as well."

When asked why she feels now is the time for a tour like this, WYNONNA says, "I have shared the stage with some of the greatest singers and musicians in the world and I have recorded with artists from all genres of music. It has been an amazing journey for me. I'm an ordinary woman that extraordinary things have happened to because I choose to continue to suit up and show up where I am called. I am more passionate now than I have ever been about my life, my gift, my faith, hopes and dreams, and I want so much to share my story and my songs with my fans. I have experienced so many personal and professional highs and lows on this journey, and having been on the road for 34 years now, I am so grateful for the wisdom and experience I have gained throughout all that has happened on and off stage. I'm looking forward to sharing my message with others, to celebrate this time in my life with the fans that have supported me all these years, as well as connect with new fans."

As a five-time Grammy winner and New York Times bestselling author, Wynonna's career has always revolved around telling stories. Whether she's using her rich, commanding voice to sing one of her countless hits or sitting down for one of her many bold, honest television appearances, Wynonna always gets her point across with unflinching honesty and wisdom gained over the course of her very public life.

WYNONNA has been working with husband/producer/drummer Cactus Moser on solo material for her 8th studio album due out 2015 on Curb Records. She recently opened up to Rolling Stone Country about the direction the new music is taking, describing it as "vintage yet modern." (7/9/14) The full interview can be read here.

The couple also recently released "Follow Me," an original song exclusively for the film "The Hornet's Nest" which features unprecedented real footage to tell the story of an elite group of U.S. troops sent on a dangerous mission deep inside one of Afghanistan's most hostile valleys. They performed the powerful track on "Good Morning America" May 22; watch here.
