Posted Apr 17, 2002 12:00 AM

Sheryl Crow will headline the inaugural Jeep World Outside Festival, which kicks off July 10th in Charlotte, North Carolina, and wraps August 18th in Camden, New Jersey. Train and O.A.R. are also on the bill, with more acts expected to be announced.

The outdoors themed festival will feature "Adventure Village," where concert-goers can take part in such activities as mountain biking, skiing and kayaking.

The twenty-three-city tour will be the first string of dates Crow has lined up in support of C'mon, C'mon, her fourth album and the first since 1998's The Globe Sessions. Lenny Kravitz, Liz Phair, Stevie Nicks, Don Henley, Emmylou Harris and the Dixie Chicks' Natalie Maines guest on the album, which took two and a half years to make.

"I just kind of lost my way for a little while," Crow told Rolling Stone of the recording process. "I think I was placing all this importance on turning forty, and I also thought it represented something in my career. I actually think C'mon, C'mon is honest, and it feels more youthful to me than anything in the past."
