Wishbone Ash were one of the new breed of progressive rock bands that developed in the late 60s and early 70s and enjoy a unique place in popular music history. They pioneered the use of twin lead guitars, a style since adopted by many other bands of the time including Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden, and gained worldwide recognition based on a regime of relentless touring.
Power and melody have made Wishbone Ash a hard act to follow and they are currently being discovered by a new generation of rock fans. An exceptional recording and touring career has seen Wishbone Ash weather many changes in record labels, personnel and musical trends.
Over the years, numerous musicians have appeared in band’s ranks contributing their talents. The current line up of Andy Powell and Muddy Manninen on guitars, Ray Weston drums and Bob Skeat on bass will perform an hour and a half of classic Wishbone Ash songs along with new material.
Tickets for this superb evening of rock music cost £15 and are available from the Box Office on 01524 582803.
