Wednesday 24th September 2025

Standard Theatre Seated

Experience the remarkable musicianship of the legendary band whose iconic twin-guitar sound inspired so many that followed. Wishbone Ash return to the UK with a show featuring much-loved classics from their multi-million selling albums such as The King Will Come, Throw Down The Sword & Blowin’ Free, along with songs from a back catalogue spanning over 55 years. Definitely one not to be missed!

The classic rock bands of the late ’60s and early ’70s enjoy a unique place in popular musical history. The Beatles had gone their separate ways, Britain had already experienced the Blues Boom, and Psychedelia had made its impact. The creative possibilities were infinite.

Wishbone Ash embarked on the nascent Progressive Rock scene in 1969, taking full advantage of a fertile musical environment where they produced a distinctive brand of melodic rock. Inspired equally by British folk traditions and American jazz and R&B, the group played to public and critical acclaim.

50 years later, having pioneered the use of twin lead guitars, Wishbone Ash has gained worldwide recognition, based firmly on a regime of relentless touring.

The band includes founding member Andy Powell, who handles lead vocals and trades guitar licks with Yorkshire’s Mark Abrahams. Bassist Bob Skeat, a 25 year veteran of the band, drives the rhythm section along with Mike Truscott, one of the best of Britain’s new breed of drummers.
