On the heels of releasing his much-lauded sophomore release I See Things Upside Down, INO Records' singer/songwriter Derek Webb has announced his headlining tour this spring. The tour will begin March 31st in Webb's home state of Texas, kicking off at Baylor University in Waco and end April 17th in
Charlotte, NC. Webb's wife, singer/songwriter Sandra McCracken, and Steven Delopoulos (Burlap to Cashmere) are joining Webb on the month long nationwide tour.

This tour is certain to be one you don't want to miss. Unlike his recent concert dates, Webb will be appearing with his full band and McCracken singing background vocals of songs from his debut release, She Must And Shall Go Free as well as from I See Things Upside Down. Opening each evening, McCracken and Delopoulos will perform songs from their own solo projects. This lineup promises the concert-goer a very unique experience. Tour dates are listed at the end.

In addition, fans will be able to take home the "live" experience with the release of Webb's first-ever live DVD, "How To Kill And Be Killed," releasing October 11th, 2005. The DVD will feature live concert footage as well as a unique and extensive behind-the-scenes interview with Webb. Well-known song favorites such as "Wedding Dress" and "I Repent" will be featured. The final song listing is found below.

To promote the spring tour and his music, Webb has partnered with street team of Ground Force Network (GFN). GFN is a grassroots community of all ages who want to use their faith to make a difference in their communities, schools and churches. Collectively, these teams inform the masses about impactful CD releases and artist tours coming to their respective areas.
