Wilko Johnson is set to perform his first UK headline gigs since appearing with Roger Daltrey at O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire in 2014, and since receiving life-saving cancer surgery.

The iconic rhythm & blues guitarist, formerly of Dr Feelgood, will head out across the UK for six special shows in April 2016.

Joanne commented: “More than excited about going on tour with Wilko Johnson. He has had such a huge influence on all of us and I have endless admiration for the man. It’s going to be an incredible tour, bring on 2016.”
