2 Jun 24
Eric Clapton headlined opening night of the Lucca Summer Festival in Tuscany on 2 June. The setting, like the previous show in Nimes, France, was marvelous. The stage was placed in front of the Renaissance-era walls that surround the historic city center. Eric previously headlined the festival in 2006 with a concert in the Piazza Napoleone.
Eric dusted off “Old Love” at this gig to the delight of the audience.
This performance also brought to a close the first leg of the 2024 Tour. The tour will pick back up on 20 September with a concert in Buenos Ares. To get tickets for all upcoming shows, visit Eric’s official website at https://ericclapton.com/pages/tour
Eric’s band for 2024 is Nathan East (bass / vocals), Doyle Bramhall II (guitar / vocals), Sonny Emory (drums), Chris Stainton (keyboards), Tim Carmon (Hammond / keyboards), Sharon White (backing vocals) and Katie Kissoon (backing vocals).
