JOHN MAYALL announces retirement from the stage. Italian dates for 2022 cancelled.

"Because of the risks due to the pandemic and my advanced age, I have decided that the time has come for me to hang up my 'street shoes'. Consequently, I will drastically reduce my touring schedule and limit my performances to shows near my home in California, and the occasional gig further afield. My epic stray dog days are therefore at an end. I want to thank my audience for all the wonderful decades of performances, their infectious enthusiasm for my music, and their support through my many musical incarnations. Having spent my life doing what I love and having you with me has been a privilege. I will not be travelling to your city, but I want to continue to share my love of the Blues with you. I have new stuff coming in the form of my album The Sun is Shining Downwhich will be released by Forty Below Records on 21 Januarytogether with my long-time rhythm section of Greg Rzab and Jay Davenport and some extraordinary special guests. I am proud of what we have created and excited to share it with you. I look forward to meeting those of you who will be able to attend my local shows, and I will miss all of you who won't be able to, but as always, keep loving the Blues!" - John Mayall

His work ethic, his great and multifaceted talent and his human and professional stature have been a great inspiration and a source of growth for us, and the wish for the new generations is to study and emulate his path.
We are and always will be left with the memory of hundreds of concerts organised for him and with him.
Thank you Mr. Mayall
Grateful forever and ever."
