Eric Gales Tour Kicks Off Tonite! 2/6/22

"For me, the gig and the album were both more consistent than some of Eric’s other recent work; more Blues and less Funk and Soul and all the better for it. Perhaps having Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith on board as co-producers of the album might be one factor. Anyone who wishes to judge for him- or herself will be pleased to know that Eric will return to the UK in June (supported then by Dom Martin) for half a dozen gigs in Leamington, Chester, York, Newcastle, Bury and Basingstoke." That was part of our take on this year's Eric Gales London O2 Academy Islington gig from March, and tonight, exactly five years ago to the day that we interviewed the man himself before his London Nell's gig (Podcast Of The Day), Gales kicks off another six-date UK tour at Leamington Assembly, with support from double 2022 UKBlues Awards winner, Dom Martin.
