Bryan Adams [ tickets ] has mixed a handful of solo-acoustic performances in with his summer co-headlining dates with Foreigner and Rod Stewart.

The veteran Canadian rocker, who's been touring the world to support his new album, "11," is set to launch his next US run July 15 in Augusta, ME. The outing's first half covers the East Coast and South with Foreigner, and then Adams will hook up with Stewart for shows stretching from California to Ohio. Along the way, he will veer off for solo-acoustic performances in Wilmington, DE; Charleston, SC; St. Louis, MO; New Orleans; Milwaukee; and Pittsburgh. Details are listed below.

The Grammy-winning singer/songwriter's new record, which was released exclusively through Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores in the US last month, shot to No. 1 in Canada and entered Billboard's Top Independent Albums chart at No. 7. The appropriately titled set is Adams' 11th album of original music and features 11 songs that he recorded in hotel rooms and backstage areas of concert venues across Europe over the last two years. A couple of those tunes, including adult-contemporary hit "I Thought I'd Seen Everything," are streaming at his MySpace page.

In May, Adams completed a string of solo-acoustic shows across the US to preview material from the acoustic-based "11" and put a new spin on some of his classics.

"I think for a lot of people that haven't heard me do [an acoustic show] before, it will be intriguing because to play a song like 'Cuts Like a Knife' on acoustic guitar is quite a different thing than hearing it with a full band," Adams explained during a May press teleconference. "I believe that that will give some insight into the songwriting and it shows that some of the new songs blend in. It's like one solid body of work."

Adams' previous studio album, "Room Service," was released in the US in 2005 and marked his first set of new music in almost seven years, with the exception of the 2002 Grammy-winning film soundtrack for "Spirit," which Adams composed and performed in English and French.

The Canadian Music Hall of Famer also continues to make a name for himself as a photographer and philanthropist. His latest photo exhibition, "Hear the World," (recently shown in Berlin) features portraits of celebrities and benefits the hearing impaired. Adams also recently shot the 2008 ad campaign for Guess, all the proceeds from which will be donated to his namesake charitable foundation, according to a press release.
