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.

Wishbone Ash, the quintessential road band, is an acknowledged influence on many other bands including Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden along with younger bands like Opeth. Power and melody have made the Ash a hard act to follow, while they are currently being discovered by new generations of loyal rock fans. An exceptional recording and touring career has seen Wishbone Ash weather many changes in record labels, personnel and musical trends. Today, the band is still going strong, with most of their vast catalog intact on CD, an award-winning website and a date sheet the envy of many other bands. With 24 studio releases, 11 live albums and five live DVDs to date, Wishbone Ash continues to prove they are not a band to rest on their laurels.

The Wishbone Ash Wishlist Tour in the US was a resounding success
for the band at the end of 2024. “This has been a great adventure for the fans and for the band,” says leader Andy
Powell. “Performing songs that our audiences have chosen gives a refreshing interactive feeling to it all, a renewed sense of purpose and direction for the live experience.’’ After electrifying sold out shows across Germany, France, the Nordics, Netherlands and
Turkey during the first half of this year, this legendary rock band continues its global momentum with their triumphant Wishlist Tour – November 2025 – March 2026.

During this show, fans will be treated to the epic masterpiece, Argus, their multi-platinum sojourn that takes every Wishbone
Ash fan to wonderous memories as well as new heights in this musical feast.
