Wishbone Ash

Although they achieved much of their success with huge hits back in the early 70s, their performances of their blues, rock, and progressive rock crossover today is still incredible. They’ve changed their line-up considerably over the years, and in my opinion, this has kept their sound fresh and exciting, and prevented their music from getting same-y and stale. Their use of the harmony twin lead guitars in their sets is something that the band are incredibly famous for, and they’ve maintained this set up throughout their years of performance.
They opened the show with the title track from their album Bona Fide, before revisiting much of their older material, before reaching Blue Horizon, their new 2014 album. It was great to see a performance with all of the original members back in position after so many years of alternative members, and they totally rocked it. It was the first time that Blue Horizon had been played in its entirety to a live audience, and it was absolutely incredible to be in that audience. The venue was full of long time fans, and everyone was singing along word for word to every single track. They band were great at getting the audience dancing and involved, and it was a great show.
