Eric Clapton

Three shows will take place May 22, May 24, and May 25, 2017. Eric will be accompanied by his band members Paul Carrack, Steve Gadd, Nathan East, Chris Stainton, Sharon White and Michelle John.
 
The shows also mark 50+ years since Clapton first played at Royal Albert Hall – his debut was on December 7, 1964 when he performed as part of the Yardbirds for BBC-2 TV’s “Top Beat Show.” Clapton returned to the venue four years later for Cream’s U.K. Farewell Concerts on November 26, 1968.

After his time with the Yardbirds in 1963, Clapton began a career as a professional musician that has seen numerous bands, an abundance of albums, countless worldwide sold out shows, an impressive array of accolades, unwavering critical acclaim and his consistent display of legendary guitar work. These concerts will mark his return to the stage after a limited global tour in 2014, a series of shows in 2015 at the Budokan in Tokyo and his 70th birthday shows last year at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Additionally, Eric Clapton: Live In San Diego With Special Guest JJ Cale will be released globally on September 30th.
