Zac Brown Band are set to release a new album and hit the road on tour in 2017.

The group's new album, Welcome Home, is set to drop on May 12, the same day their Welcome Home Tour kicks off in their hometown of Atlanta, Ga. The album returns ZBB to their musical roots.

"We’re looking forward to heading back on the road in 2017 and sharing some new songs with our fans,” Brown says in a press release.

Country Tours Hitting the Road in 2017

The group will be plenty busy in 2017, as the tour takes them across the country from May through October before it wraps up at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The upcoming gigs follow the band's widely successful 2016 tour that saw them breaking records at a variety of venues, including Fenway Park in Boston, where they achieved the most tickets sold over two nights of concerts by the same artist.

The band was also honored with an exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2016 titled Homegrown: Zac Brown Band, which highlights their illustrious career.

Zac Brown will also be awarded the Artist Humanitarian Award at the 2017 Country Radio Seminar in Nashville for his philanthropic and humanitarian efforts.

Tickets for the Welcome Home Tour are on sale Friday (Jan. 20) at 10AM local time on Ticketmaster.  Every online ticket order for the tour includes a copy of the new album, with fans choosing between a physical or digital product.

ZBB will make a special tour stop in Minnesota when they headline at WE Fest in August.
