While you gear up for getting down with Dubbed & Freq'd, TobyMac is making concert plans as well, having just announced the expansion of his unplugged "A Night of Stories and Songs" tour through April 21. See the cities and dates here.

Before he hits the road, however, TobyMac will hit the celebrity course for the 2012 AT&T Pebble Beach National ProAm for his second consecutive year, where he will be joined by leading PGA TOUR pros and fellow celebrity amateurs including Bill Belichick, head coach of the New England Patriots, actors Josh Duhamel and Don Cheadle, Darius Rucker, the Green Bay Packers' Aaron Rodgers, Clay Walker and many more.

Played on Pebble Beach Golf Links, Spyglass Hill Golf Course and Monterey Peninsula Country Club's Shore Course February 6-12, should TobyMac continue through the rounds on Sunday, he may miss the GRAMMY® Awards, where he's nominated for his songwriting contribution to Gotee recording artist Jamie Grace's (whom he signed to the label) No. 1 hit "Hold Me," in the "Best Contemporary Christian Music Song" category. This marks TobyMac's eighth consecutive GRAMMY® nomination as a solo artist. The 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards will take place live from Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 12, 2012, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.

Net proceeds from the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am go to support a wide variety of charitable organizations. Since the tournament moved to the Monterey Peninsula in 1947, Monterey Peninsula Foundation has made charitable donations totaling over $93 million.
