From there, the group will hit up such cities and locations as the Kern County Fair (outside Bakersfield, California), Fresno, and Fair Oaks, California before heading north where they will appearing in multiple venues in Oregon and Washington state.
John Rulapaugh of Freedom said, "I'm really excited to be headed west to sing in California, Oregon, and Washington. It's been a few years since the last time I was there with Palmetto State Quartet, and I've missed it! My first trip west was with the Dove Brothers back in 1999 or 2000, and I was privileged to travel there every year until I left the road in 2008. I'm excited to be bringing Freedom to the West! I look forward to seeing old friends, and hope to make a lot of new friends along the way."
