LeAnn Rimes recuperates, books more shows

LeAnn Rimes --who in the past month has scrapped several concerts due to illness--has mapped out a healthy summer tour schedule.

Rimes' itinerary currently runs from mid-May through early September, and includes a stop at this year's CMA Music Festival. Details are shown below.

Tickets to a number of shows are on sale now, and members of the country singer's fan club have a shot at meet-and-greet passes. Details are posted at her website.

Last week, Rimes canceled a planned May 7 performance in Wichita, KS, due to bronchitis, according to reports. She also pulled the plug on several April concerts due to a broken blood vessel in one of her vocal cords; the condition was the result of a bout with severe bronchitis, according to a press release issued at the time.

Despite the ailments, she expects to resume her tour schedule as planned with a May 14 concert in Baltimore, according to her website.

Rimes is backing her latest album, February's "This Woman." Originally scheduled for release last October, the set was pushed back so that Rimes could first focus on "What a Wonderful World," a holiday set that she issued that same month, and followed up with a holiday tour.
