Eric Johnson's Treasure Tour

Due to many unforeseen difficulties and to offer fans additional distance from the current COVID environment, Eric Johnson has decided to postpone his 2022 tour into 2023. You will see brand new music for this tour.  He appreciates your continued understanding and support.  The tour is being pushed into 2023 and will be March 4, 2023 at the National Hispanic Cultural Center.  All tickets will be refunded back to the card of purchase.  Ticket buyers will be given the opportunity to purchase new tickets before they go on sale to the general public.

This is a reserved seat show with an upstairs VIP Bar.  People with VIP Bar tickets will have a private bar and bathrooms, cocktail tables and hangout areas in the El Rey balcony.  Standing along the balcony rail provides a nice view of the show and the rest of the space will be a cool, chill hang during the show.  VIP Bar access will be limited to 100 people.  

Seated tickets cost $30 and $40, and the VIP Bar is $45 (including all service charges). They are also available by phone through Hold My Ticket at 505-886-1251.

Eric Johnson has been traveling on a prolific odyssey over the course of more than four decades. Along the way, his creations have encompassed repertoire that cross-pollinate genres which include rock, blues, jazz, fusion, soul, folk, new-age, classical and even country. Inevitably, E.J. says it best himself: "It really boils down to the music and the song at the end of the day," he explains. "If it doesn't have that, it gets boring for me. The most important thing for me is to grow musically and make a more expansive and meaningful artistic statement with every new project."

During the pandemic, the Grammy-winning guitarist, vocalist, composer, and multi-instrumentalist has been busy releasing weekly, donation-based, virtual "Mini-Lessons" benefitting food banks across the country, and working in the studio on previously unreleased tracks and new recordings. 

Throughout his career, Johnson has approached music as a healing force, a way to enhance a listener's consciousness, and conjure joy and inspiration. More than a year into the pandemic, and because of the pandemic, he reflects that this approach has become reinforced and more enhanced.

The 2022 Treasure Tour will feature some of the previously unreleased gems, some new songs, and some older favorites. His band will include Tom Brechtlein on drums and Roscoe Beck on bass.
