About this Event

Walter Trout plays earth shattering blues rock music, he was

voted the 6th best guitarist ever in a BBC Radio listeners

poll and gets rave reviews whenever playing live as well as on

record, with quotes like 'When it comes to blazing guitar

players, Walter Trout is the prophet' (Pasadena Weekly, USA).

Trout who topped the Blues charts with the all star 'Full

Circle' and 'The Outsider'. His live shows are mesmerising,

his guitar technique dazzling and his rapport with fans both

funny and intense.

Following a liver transplant, and extensive rehabilitation,

the esteemed Bluesman feels strong enough to resume his career

of fifty plus years. Trout shares, "The last year has been

one where the blues truly came calling, and I came face to

face with death more than once. My wife moved me to Nebraska

to improve my chances of getting a life-saving liver

transplant, and after a long wait, I got my new liver on May

26th, 2014. Since then I have been filled with immense

gratitude. Gratitude for the fans who supported me via

fundraisers, cards, messages, thoughts and prayers, for the

donor and his or her family, for medical science, for my

family, and for life itself. Everything matters more to me

now. Now, 8 months after my transplant I feel like a new man.

I have strength and energy. In some ways I feel like I am in

my 20’s again! The past couple of years of playing I was

getting dizzy spells, severe cramps in my hand and forearm and

played many shows in severe pain. It turns out that was a

result of my deteriorating liver. That is gone now! I am able

to play better than I have in years. I feel reborn. I cannot

wait to get back out on the road again and do what I love to

do for my fans. The future looks great!
