After wrapping up in Tokyo, Eric heads back to the UK for a short run in May, including three nights at London’s Royal Albert Hall. From there, the tour continues in Italy and France through early June. He returns to the United States in September for a limited series of concerts, kicking off in Nashville and including a long-awaited return to Madison Square Garden in New York on September 19.
