Last month, Rick Wakeman announced that he’d head out on tour across North America on The Grumpy Old Rock Star Tour.
The keyboard maestro initially revealed a run of 14 shows which will combine “spellbinding piano music with side-splitting jokes and revealing insights into his 50-plus-year career.”
Now Wakeman has added a further eight performances which will take place from mid-October.
A statement on the tour adds: “Expect an evening of superb musicianship, featuring music from Yes, Rick’s own solo epics and early Bowie hits, plus fantastic arrangements of Beatles’ tunes, and much, much more, interspersed with knockabout – and sometimes bawdy – typically British humour.”
Find a full list of Wakeman’s North American tour dates below, with the new shows highlighted in bold.
Before his trip across the Atlantic, Wakeman will play two night’s at London’s Royal Festival Hall on July 13 and 14, where he’ll revisit his epic live album Journey To The Centre Of The Earth.
He’s also lined up The Grumpy Old Christmas Show Tour which will take place across England in December.
