Wilko Johnson

Back on the road this week! The rockin' Wilko Express - with special guest Glenn Tilbrook - will be calling at Cambridge Junction (Thursday), Cardiff Tramshed (Friday) and Cheltenham Town Hall (Saturday). (Was going to make a reference to the 'three Cs' but realised that could be misconstrued.) https://www.junction.co.uk/wilko-johnson?spektrix_bounce=true#tickets http://tramshedcardiff.com/event/wilko-johnson-with-special-guest-glenn-tilbrook/ http://www.cheltenhamtownhall.org.uk/event/wilko-johnson-with-special-guest-glenn-tilbrook-251756/

In the top five things to do this weekend.... Wilko and the boys hit York's Fibbers Saturday night! And, of course, Edinburgh tonight... Enjoy!

Flashback Friday! You don't get band pictures like this any more. Reverse side of Down By The Jetty, 1975 👌

We're sure many of you have already heard the sad news about Dean Kennedy, who passed away recently after a short battle with cancer. An instrumental part of the Feelgood family, and an Oil City rocker in his own right (here's a picture of Dean, second from right, in Deeno's Marvels in 1977). RIP Dean, sincerest condolences to his loved ones.

Not to be missed!

Italy, here we come! Wilko and the boys will be bringing the r&b magic to Cinema Macallè - Alessandria, Castelceriolo this week (March 23rd):

A lovely, in-depth and typically humorous Q&A with Wilko in Guitar Exchange, thanks Paul Rigg!
