June 29 (UPI) -- Lady Gaga says fans should expect the new Bud Light Dive Bar Tour to be "even more intimate" than it was last year.

The 31-year-old singer discussed her plans for the venture in an interview with Billboard after confirming she will perform July 13 in Las Vegas.

"I intend for it to be even more intimate than it was the last time," Lady Gaga shared. "I really want to break the songs down and talk to the audience even more and just, you know, sing the hell out of my songs."

"All the time, I think about how I started out in my career, and I was just playing in bars downtown in New York -- and you miss that, you know?" she explained. "It's a very wonderful, intimate connection that you get to make with the audience."

Lady Gaga performed three dates on the first Bud Light Dive Bar Tour in 2016, but will only headline the July 13 concert this year. She will instead pass the torch to other artists for the July 26 show in Los Angeles and the Aug. 30 concert in New Orleans.

"[They're] very different from me," the star told E! News of the mystery artists. "It's really going to diversify the tour."

"I just really love to play in bars and I miss it all the time, which is why we've created this amazing tour that I'm so happy other artists will be doing now," she added.

Lady Gaga last released the album Joanne in October. She will promote the record on a world tour of the same name, which kicks off Aug. 1 in Vancouver, B.C., and ends Dec. 18 in Inglewood, Calif.
