BILL
WYMAN’S RHYTHM KINGS
2013 UK
TOUR
Featuring
Special Guest Maria Muldaur
Rock
and roll icon, author, restaurateur and photographer - legendary
former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman has seen it all and
continues to live life to the full. For over thirty years he was part of the
best rock n roll band in the world.
His
latest musical rebirth, as the driving force behind the fabulous Rhythm
Kings, sees him return to his musical roots. This set of virtuoso musicians
superbly bring back to life the kind of classic rhythm and blues that first
inspired Wyman to pick up the guitar as a teenager. A show imbued with absolute
quality.
"The
whole idea behind the band was to play music that we love and I think you can
hear and feel that on our records. Playing live, doing gigs, means everybody in
the band does it for the same reasons as I do; to have a good time and send the
crowd home with smiles on their faces" says Wyman.
