Rick Wakeman has announced that he will tour with son Oliver for the very first time, under the heading Rick Wakeman And Son, for his rescheduled US tour dates in March 2026.
Wakeman had to cancel plans to tour the US in July 2025 with vocalist Hayley Sanderson due to surgery. Existing commitments mean that Sanderson is no longer available to join him on the road.
The pair have shared stages together, notably for Rick's acclaimed performance of The Myths And Legends of King Arthur… at London’s O2 Arena, but they have never toured together before.
“It’s always an honour for me to share the stage with one of my wonderful children,” says Rick, “and for the first time, it’s a thrill to be actually doing a tour with my eldest son Oliver. I know it will be very special – especially if, on the odd occasion, he buys me dinner!!”
Both musicians have performed with Yes and Strawbs, and will be performing music which ranges from their joint musical heritage to their latest recordings.
