Usher returned to the stage this week to kick off his 'Past Present Future Tour' after postponing the first gigs due to a neck injury.
Usher was well enough to kick off his tour in Washington, D.C.
The 45-year-old pop star had been due to start the tour in Atlanta, Georgia on August 14 but he called off the first concert just hours before show time after suffering an injury in rehearsals and he went on to axe two more dates at the city's State Farm Arena as he recovered.
However, Usher has bounced back, and he was able to get back on stage on Tuesday (20.08.24) to start the tour at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C.
The show lasted two hours and included performances of hits such as 'Lovers and Friends', 'Confessions', 'Yeah!', and 'U Don't Have To Call'.
Usher returned to the stage for a second show in the city on Wednesday (21.08.24) and is next due to perform at the CFG Bank Arena in Baltimore, Maryland on Friday (23.08.24) and Saturday (24.08.24).
He is due to take the tour to Europe in March kicking off with an eight-night residency at London's O2 Arena.
After calling off the first few shows of the tour, Usher released a statement explaining he'd been told by doctors not to perform.
He wrote: " Earlier this week, I suffered an injury to my neck while rehearsing to provide my fans with the greatest Usher show of all time.
"My hope was that with physical therapy and medical treatment, I would be able to overcome the injury and be ready for opening night. Unfortunately, the injury has not healed yet, and my doctors have instructed me not to perform any shows this week.
"The good news is that the doctors are saying that with appropriate rest and treatment, I should be ready to commence the tour in Washington DC on August 20th.
"I love my fans and thank you for understanding that this injury must be healed so that I can give you the 100 per cent excellence that you expect from an Usher show and that I will be on stage in your city very soon."
