David Gilmour announces Euro tour

David Gilmour has announced a tour of mainland Europe for later this year.

The run of 12 dates come immediately after his show at Freedom Square in Wroclaw, Poland, on June 25, where the former Pink Floyd man will be joined by a 30-piece orchestra.

The concerts are in support of his fourth solo album Rattle That Lock, which was released last year. It spawned the singles Faces Of Stone, Yellow Dress, Today, and the record’s title track.

In addition to the newly announced dates, Gilmour has a run of North American dates starting next month. He’ll then return to London’s Royal Albert Hall for four nights in September.
