Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Kick Off Soul2Soul Tour with Powerful Duet

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill launched their Soul2Soul Tour 2017 at the Smoothie King Center with a show-stopping performance of “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me).” Backed by a 12-piece band and dramatic stage lighting, the country power couple delivered a soulful, emotionally rich rendition that highlighted their incredible chemistry.

Hill’s soaring voice blended perfectly with McGraw’s gritty tone, breathing fresh energy into the classic duet and mesmerizing the crowd of over 17,000 fans. The moment wasn’t about spectacle—it was about heart. Instead of opening with one of their biggest hits, they chose a cover that made a statement: this tour is about more than music—it’s about connection.

With a simple setup and powerful emotion, McGraw and Hill reminded everyone why their bond, both as artists and as a couple, continues to inspire.
