The Get Loose Tour was the third concert tour by Canadian singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado. The tour showcased material from her third studio album, Loose (2006). A live album, Loose: The Concert, originated from the April 4, 2007, concert in Toronto.{{Cite web|url=http://metronews.ca/news/151221/top-four-in-music-ryan-adams-the-cardinals-and-more/|title=Top four in music: Ryan Adams & The Cardinals and more|website=Metronews.ca|access-date=May 22, 2023|archive-date=February 21, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140221172336/http://metronews.ca/news/151221/top-four-in-music-ryan-adams-the-cardinals-and-more/|url-status=dead}}
Background
After Loose garnered considerable sales and attention, Nelly Furtado announced a tour of Europe and North America. Nelly stated:{{cite web|url=http://popdirt.com/nelly-furtados-get-loose-tour/61167/|title=Nelly Furtado's Get Loose Tour|date=June 1, 2007|website=Popdirt.com|access-date=April 9, 2009|archive-date=May 8, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090508075342/http://popdirt.com/nelly-furtados-get-loose-tour/61167/|url-status=dead}}
{{cquote| For the last eight years I’ve never really traveled with a full production of lights, visuals and dancers – and this tour I’ve got all of it. I’ve spent eight years building my musicality so that now I can rely on that, but then I also have a great backup up there with all the production, which is a treat for me.}}
The set consisted of a white stage, a multi-leveled band setup with LCD screens, two parallel multi-story white palm trees, a large LED screen, and a white stage curtain.
{{cquote|The show is inspired by Miami. There's palm trees on the set, white palm trees and a white stage, and it's got a little bit of drama to it. I think the show's a little more sensual or sophisticated, but I keep the primary focus on the songs.}}
Furtado was backed by four dancers and her six-piece band, including Toronto rapper Saukrates on percussion who also fills in for Loose producer Timbaland on some of the tracks from Loose.
The Get Loose Tour started in North America with seven shows, followed by Europe with 23 shows over five weeks. The Canadian leg began shortly afterward in Victoria, B.C. (Furtado's birthplace) where the mayor proclaimed March 21 as Nelly Furtado Day. After the first leg was completed plans were announced for Furtado to visit the United States.
The second leg in the United States consisted of a more budget production. The LED screen was replaced by a light-up disco ball, the white curtains were replaced by a large LED sheet, and most notably the palm trees vanished. Furtado also wore her hair differently for these shows and changed her costumes.
The third leg consisted of a number of open air festivals during the summer season in Europe. Costumes for this leg of the tour were provided by a famous French designer.
