Malcolm Bruce and Kofi Baker—the respective sons of Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker—have teamed up with Eric Clapton's nephew, Will Johns for The Music of Cream: 50th Anniversary Tour.
The eight-week, 34-city North American trek will mark 50 years since Cream played their farewell tour of the U.S. in 1968. During the trek, the trio will perform the music of Cream, interspersed with footage of the original band on the big screen, along with never-before-seen footage and photos.
"We had such an amazing response to our first tour in Australia and New Zealand that we've spent some considerable time adding to the show," Bruce said in a press release. "Now, we not only have this amazing legacy of music to play, but an opportunity to share some wonderful insights and stories with our audience. A backstage pass like no other, if you will."
"We also have a few surprises in store that we know people are going to really respond to, so we can't wait to be on the road again playing these shows across North America this fall," Baker added.
