Dr Feelgood's Wilko Johnson Set For Solo Tour

06/12/2012
. (Noble) Former Dr Feelgood guitarist Wilko Johnson plans to launch a fall tour of the UK with special guest Virgil and the Accelerators.

Johnson is promoting his autobiography, Looking Back At Me. Dr Feelgood is said to have influenced everyone from Joe Strummer and Mick Jones to Steve Albini.

After pioneering the Feelgood's distinctive mid 70s, pre-punk British R&B sound (which had a significant impact on the British punk rock music), Wilko went on to play guitar for Ian Dury and the Blockheads.

His current touring band features current Blockhead members Norman Watt-Roy (bass guitar), and Dylan Howe (drums).
