Cat Stevens 2014 U.S. Tour Dates Announced, First Since 1976 See City List Here

Newly inducted Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Cat Stevens has announced that he will be doing a short U.S. Tour this December. 

The six-city concert tour in North America this December, his first series of shows in the U.S. since 1976. The tour kicks off on December 4 in Boston and closes out at L.A.'s Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on December 14. Those who purchase the new album via Amazon.com will receive early access to purchase tickets. Tickets go up for grabs to the general public on September 27 at 10 a.m. local time.

Cat Stevens/Yusuf 2014 North American Tour Dates:

12/04 - Boston, MA @ Citi Performing Arts Center - Wang Theatre
12/07 - New York, NY @ Beacon Theatre
12/09 - Chicago, IL @ Chicago Theatre
12/12 - San Francisco, CA @ The Masonic Auditorium
12/14 - Los Angeles, CA @ Nokia Theatre L.A. Live

"I've been a bit slow in coming around to the United States, but there were so many people asking me to do that, that I just felt an obligation," Stevens shared with Rolling Stone.

He spoke on his hesitations about getting back into the music business. "That's something I ran away from a long time ago," he said. "But that's not to say the music business is the same as making music. When I finally reconciled my questions about the issue - where it should be in my life - by that time, I had something to say. I wouldn't be writing songs if I didn't have something to say."

"I'm afraid that a lot of things that people believe about Islam are totally different from the religion that most of us recognize," Stevens shared. "I was really fortunate that I got to know Islam before it became a headline."

Cat Stevens worked on a blues album Tell 'Em I'm Gone with producer Rick Rubin and it will be releasing on October 27th.
