Eric Johanson Announces Summer ‘Don’t Hold Back’ Tour Dates On His Don’t Hold Back Tour

Following a month-long tour of Europe on the RUF Records Blues Caravan, Eric Johanson announces new US & European summer dates on his “Don’t Hold Back Tour.” This summer tour kicks off with a hometown performance at New Orleans’ Bayou Boogaloo Fest, followed by dates in Louisiana & Texas, before he heads back overseas for a prominent slot at the prestigious Holland International Blues Fest, opening up for Robben Ford & Warren Haynes.

Johanson will return to the US in time to perform a special solo set opening for The Record Company in Louisville, CO before heading out on the road with his band to play Sellersville, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Buffalo, and Rochester.

In July, Johanson’s power trio will travel to Spain for the first time, performing at the Blues Cazorla Fest, followed by a headline show in Madrid. The band will then travel to Sweden to play the Time To Rock Festival, before heading back to the US for dates spanning the Midwest to Southeast.

Since the release of his latest album, The Deep And The Dirty, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart, Johanson’s career is on a fast paced upward trajectory. Guitar Player Magazine named him one of their “Top 25 New Blues Guitarists”, and Total Guitar Magazine put him in the top 50 of their “100 Greatest Blues Guitarists of All Time”.
