Will Wilde brings his harmonica-led fusion of blues, rock, soul and funk to The Facebar on Ambrose Place.
Will Wilde plays The Facebar on Friday 4 December, bringing his mix of blues, rock, soul and funk to Reading. It's a single-name bill, so he's the only one on the night.
If you're not familiar with his sound, it's built around the harmonica. He picked up his first one at 16 and played it until his lips bled, growing up on Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson and Buddy Guy. That Chicago blues foundation is still there, but he pulls in rock, soul and funk too, and keeps an eye on contemporary influences rather than just looking back. Over the years he's developed a sound that holds onto the heart of the blues while moving it into different territory.
