Sturgill Simpson will hit the road this month for a limited tour that will support the Special Forces Foundation, a nonprofit that provides support to Army Special Forces soldiers and their families.

The six-date run kicks off on Sept. 29 in West Hollywood, Calif., making additional stops in San Francisco, Brooklyn, Washington, D.C., and more. The tour comes on the heels of Sturgill’s upcoming album, Sound & Fury, which is set to drop on Sept. 27. The new Sturgill-produced album will be his first since the 2016 release of A Sailor’s Guide to Earth, which won a Grammy for Best Country Album.

All net proceeds from Sturgill’s new tour will be donated to the Special Forces Foundation. Tickets go on sale on Sept. 25, at 10 a.m. local time.
