Sheryl Crow will be hitting the road again for a tour with John Mayer kicking off Aug. 24 in Pittsburgh, the Associated Press reports.

The singer has been doing small shows over the last few months, but this will be her first cross country tour since her diagnosis of cancer.

Crow told AP although she only finished treatment six weeks ago, she has been itching to get back on to the stage and perform again.

“A song as simple as ‘Home’ for me, it really grabs my heart when I sing that song because the way people really showed up for me in my illness, not just family and friends but people all over the world sending me cards and sending prayers and love,” she said. “It was a powerful experience for me.”

A portion of proceeds from the ticket sales of the tour will go to support the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
