LOS ANGELES, March 24 (UPI) -- Counting Crows and Maroon 5 are planning to co-headline a North American summer tour set to kick off in July in Virginia, Live Nation announced Monday.

Singer Sara Bareilles will perform on select dates, while the rock band Augustana will perform on others, the tour's promoters said.

"Counting Crows and Maroon 5 on the same stage is an incredible double bill for music fans," Live Nation's Ryan McElrath said in a statement. "Both bands have a huge body of hit songs that are sure to please fans from coast to coast."

The tour is expected to include more than 40 stops in the United States and Canada, including the opener in Virginia Beach, Va.

Tickets go on sale April 4.
