Kenny Rogers maps more tour dates

Veteran country singer Kenny Rogers , whose latest hits collection was recently certified gold, plans to spend much of the year on the road.

Rogers' in-progress itinerary stretches all the way into November, and includes dates throughout the U.S. and Canada. Details are shown below.

The roadwork follows last year's release of "Kenny Rogers: 42 Ultimate Hits," which features songs culled from the singer's extensive catalog, and also includes the new cuts "We Are the Same" and "My World is Over"; the latter track is a duet with relative newcomer Whitney Duncan.

Last month, the Recording Industry Association of America gold-certified the album, signifying U.S. shipment of 500,000 copies.

Also last month, Capitol Records Nashville announced that it had cut a new recording deal with Rogers, who previously was with the label from 1976-1983. That stint included album sales of 1 million copies per month for two straight years, according to the label.

"Aside from Capitol being the place where I had the majority of my big successes, the fact that I'm with a label who truly believes that I have a future in contemporary radio is what makes this exciting," Rogers said in a statement of his return to the label.

No world yet on when a new Capitol release will surface.
