Carly posted to Twitter, "Had the time of my life on the #29tour, so I’ve decided to extend it into 2022 with my gal pal @hannahgreyellis!! Presale tickets are on sale tomorrow at 10 am with code CARLY29. $1 from every ticket will support tornado relief in my home state of KY http://carlypearce.com/tour."

She tweeted the day the tornado hit her home state, "Sending my love to the people of Western Kentucky this morning who were affected by last night’s storms."
