Dubbed the B.B. King Blues Festival, the jaunt will visit cities including Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Dallas and Denver. It will wrap September 9 at the Kautz Ironstone Vineyards Theater in Murphys, Calif.
Supporting on select dates are Joan Osborne, Robert Randolph and James Hunter.
Since January, 81-year-old King has been performing gigs on his 60th Anniversary Tour. Last April, the Grammy-winning bluesman celebrated his 10,000th concert at the B.B. King Blues Club & Grill in New York City's Times Square. King also recently announced that he will fully fund the $10 million B.B. King Museum in Mississippi, which is expected to open in 2008.
