With 2023 marking the 50th anniversary of the iconic double live album, Live Dates, this is a rare opportunity to hear the legendary Wishbone Ash performing their biggest selling album in its entirety.
The show also features material from many of their other much loved albums.
Hear classics such as Blowin’ Free, The King will Come, Throw down the Sword and Warrior, sounding as fresh as ever delivered with a twin guitar sound that has become a part of rock history.
With multi-award winning lead guitarist Andy Powell still at the helm, they are undoubtedly one of the most celebrated bands of the British rock era. A constant best guitarist award-winner throughout his career, he featured on Miles Copeland’s Night of the Guitars tour alongside fellow greats, Leslie West, Jan Akkerman, Robby Kreiger, Alvin Lee, Randy California and Steve Howe.
The band have been cited as a major influence by such luminaries as Iron Maiden, Thin Lizzy, Van Halen, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Metallica.
They continue to record and have over 30 albums to their credit but are best known for their dynamic stage performance driven by the incendiary twin guitars never failing to deliver a dynamite live show.
They sold out at the Phoenix on their “Argus” tour here last year. Speak to anyone that was there, an incredible audience reaction throughout the show. Do not miss this one – get your tickets early !!
Support from the much feted and celebrated local rockers… AQUILLA
