The Tim McGraw/Faith Hill "Soul2Soul" Atlanta show is on the move.

The concert by the superstar country spouses is moving from Saturday, April 22 to Sunday, April 23 because of a conflict with an Atlanta Hawks playoff game.

The basketball team kicks off its series against the Washington Wizards on April 16 in Washington, D.C. The Hawks' first home game will take place at Philips Arena at 5:30 p.m. April 22, necessitating the move of the concert.

All tickets purchased for the original date will be honored.

This isn't the first time a show has been shuffled to accommodate the team; in 2015, a Bette Midler concert at Philips was moved one day for the same reason.
