Fans flocking to Nashville this June for CMA Music Festival have one extra bonus to look forward to with the unveiling of Carrie Underwood's "The Blown Away Tour" exhibition, opening at the Country Music Hall of Fame on June 5.
The "Blown Away Tour" exhibition will recreate nearly a dozen vignettes from the tour and include one-of-a-kind gowns, embellished separates and other stage wear created by Emmy Award-winning costume designer Marina Toybina, including a wide array of coordinating shoes, jewelry and accessories, colorful customized microphones made for and used by Underwood throughout each show, select band members’ costumes and instruments, and items from Underwood's backstage “meet-and-greet” area, including a selection of gifts and signs presented to the singer by fans during the tour
“Carrie Underwood’s dynamic ‘Blown Away Tour’ -- starring her peerless powerhouse vocals and featuring amazing special effects including a tornado -- has been entertaining music fans around the globe,” says Museum Director Kyle Young. “It’s easy to see why she was Pollstar’s 2012 top female country touring artist. Touring has always been a key element connecting music artists with their fans; those interactions help forge and strengthen the artist-fan relationship, and this exhibit speaks to that. We are delighted to be able to show our visitors key elements from Carrie’s show, whether re-living their favorite memories of the tour or experiencing it for the first time via our exhibition. Fans will enjoy this ‘up close and personal’ look at a world-class, superstar level music tour.”
