Maren Morris Announces Touring Break to Write and Focus on Family

Maren Morris revealed she is stepping away from touring after her current run wraps up. The announcement came during an interview with Today on Friday (July 3), as reported by Billboard.

She said her dreamGIRL Tour, which concludes on August 15 at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, will be her final trek for the foreseeable future. Morris explained she wants to carve out time for creativity and family after a decade on the road.

What are Maren Morris's plans after the tour?

“This is sort of my last tour for a bit, because I want to be able to free think more and be in the studio more, and just figure out what I want to say next,” Morris said. She is looking forward to being home more, especially as her son begins kindergarten. “I’m excited to home a little bit more after this run,” she added.

Could she write for Broadway?

One major creative goal is writing for the stage. Morris has already written songs for film, including two tracks for 2024's The Wild Robot. She sees Broadway as a natural next step. “I feel like Broadway — it’s just a storytelling medium and you get more time,” the singer said. “So I would love to do something like that, write for a musical.”

Her immediate focus remains on the final dates of the dreamGIRL Tour, which features songs from across her catalog. Her most recent studio album, Dreamsicle, was released in 2025.
