One half of the legendary Judds is picking up where the duo left off. Wynonna Judd has just announced a dozen tour dates along the West Coast, beginning with Friday night's stop in Palm Desert, Calif. The Judds finished their Final Encore Tour in Phoenix, Ariz. last year.

It will be a busy finish to 2011 for Wynonna. In addition to two-plus weeks worth of tour dates, the famous redhead will continue working on a new studio album, her eighth for Curb Records and the first since 'Sing: Chapter 1' in 2009.

The star is giving fans a chance to be one of 10 people invited backstage for a meet and greet before the show. Details of the 'Thanks & Giving' meet-and-greet can be found at her official website.

“It means a lot to me to have such dedicated and hardworking fans that have been with me throughout my journey," Judd says in a press release. "Thanking each person is always hard to do, but I’m going to meet as many fans as possible and express my appreciation to them in person."
