The singer confirmed the tour on her website, featuring a promo video. The five-month series of dates will kick off on May 20th in Louisiana, before moving on across the US and to five other countries. Her opening act will be none other than VH1 You Oughta Know vet Vance Joy. Taylor did a spectacular cover version of Vance's "Rip Tide" last month for BBC Live Lounge. Foreshadow much? Maybe we can expect some killer live duets...
