About this concert
55ans de carrière et WISHBONE ASH continue de faire ce qu’il préfère : jouer sa musique !Wishbone Ash fut l’un des premiers groupes à jouer avec deux guitaristes solistes. En effet, à la fin des 60s/début 70s chaque groupe avait son guitariste : Deep Purple avec Blackmore, Led Zep avec Page etc…De cette particularité est née la marque de fabrique du groupe : les TWIN GUITARS. Cette façon d’harmoniser les parties de guitares – un peu comme à la manière de cuivres– a vite été adopté par d’autres groupes majeurs comme Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest ou Iron Maiden. Préférant continuer dans sa propre voie plutôt que de se sacrifier aux modes successives ou se perdre dans la course aux tubes, WISHBONE ASH a atteint le statut de groupe Culte. Le groupe mené par la Flying V mythique d’Andy Powell a conservé son intégrité artistique et son exigence de qualité. Ainsi, les fidèles du groupe continuent de se rendre nombreux à leurs concerts.Les Anglais auraient pu se reposer sur leurs lauriers (Argus a été album multi-platine) mais l’idée a toujours été de poursuivre le travail de création. C’est ainsi que la formation garde toute sa fraîcheur.En 2020 WISHBONE ASH sort Coat Of Arms son 24ème album studio ! Classic Rock Magazine le classe dans sa liste des albums de l’année, en 2023 un nouvel album live.L’intégrité, l’expérience et la technique de WISHBONE ASH (plus de 20 concerts chaque mois depuis des décennies !) font de chacune de ses apparitions, un moment de musique exceptionnelle.

Wishbone Ash Biography
History ::
Formed in 1969, Wishbone Ash has more than 20 original studio recordings and several live albums to their credit. The group has appeared at all the major music festivals and enjoys a history with some of the world’s classic music labels, Universal and Atlantic Records.
Back in the day, Wishbone Ash cut their teeth on the US stadium circuit first opening for The Who. Once they began headlining in the States, Wishbone’s opening acts included Springsteen, Kiss and Aerosmith.
Citing Wishbone Ash as an influence on their style, Thin Lizzy, Iron Maiden, Southern Rock outfits like Lynyrd Skynyrd and, more recently, heavyweights like Opeth and some of the guitar-based Indie/ Alternative bands, have all taken a little something from the legendary twin-guitar approach of Wishbone Ash. Truly, there is no other rock band on the planet that has done more with the twin guitar concept than the Ash.
