Get well soon, Bonnie Raitt!

Due to an unexpected medical situation that requires immediate attention, Bonnie will no longer be able to join James for the first portion of his 2018 Summer US Tour. A full recovery is expected and Bonnie is scheduled to rejoin the tour starting in St. Paul, MN on June 22.

The first leg of the tour, which is scheduled to kick off in Jacksonville, FL on May 8, will now be an “Evening with James Taylor & His All-Star Band”, featuring two sets with a brief intermission.

James is also pleased to announce that Sheryl Crow is scheduled to join him as a Special Guest in Phoenix, AZ on May 29 and for two nights at the Hollywood Bowl on May 31 and June 1.

Message from Bonnie
I’m deeply sorry to have to disappoint my fans, James and colleagues with these cancellations. I was so looking forward to our tour, but I’m very grateful that the doctors feel this can be taken care of with surgery. I’m feeling strong and am in great hands with my wonderful team. I fully expect to return for the second leg of the US tour in June followed by our European tour in July. Thank you all for your concern and understanding that the best gift you could give me is respecting my wish for privacy and giving me space to heal. Can’t wait to see you all back on the road again soon!

Message from James
This summer was to be Bonnie’s and my second summer touring together. We wanted to do it again because it was such good fun the first time, we didn’t want it to end. We are so looking forward to having her rejoin the tour in mid-June. Of course, there is no question as to the priority of your health, Bonnie. You will be constantly in our hearts and minds until we see you in June.

“Get well.
Get well soon.
We hope you get well soon…”
