Walter Trout
28 October 7:30 PM
Blues guitar legend Walter Trout comes to Buxton hot on the heels of his acclaimed album The Outsider. Following a youth playing in various New Jersey bands, Trout moved to Los Angeles, where she became sideman to such veteran performers as Finis Tasby, Pee Wee Crayton, John Lee Hooker, Big Mama Thorton and Joe Tex. Between 1981 and 1984 he joined Canned Heat, before answering the call to join John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers. With his star on the ascendant, Trout then launched a highly acclaimed solo career. Whether an improvisational jam or a carefully arranged song, Walter Trout’s thirst for musical satisfaction is seemingly unquenchable. Equally capable of spontaneous serendipity as well as pre-planned perfection, this guitarist is truly in the midst of an all-encompassing love affair with the music he creates.

The Damned
09 November 7:30 PM
Still playing to packed-out venues the world over, the legendary punk band will be showcasing their latest stuff alongside classic punk tunes, including New Rose, Love Song, Smash It Up and I Just Can’t Be Happy Today (as well as their hit cover of Eloise). In their latest album, So, Who’s Paranoid?, The Damned still display, after 32 years, their trademark brand of dark melodic irony, blended with caustic political satire – perhaps more relevant now than ever.
Headed by classic band members Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible, along with Monty Oxy Moron, Pinch and Stu West, The Damned have lost none of their energy, music; melody and lyrical diversity combined in an intoxicating potion that stirs the blood and sets the pulse racing.

In The Flesh - The Pink Floyd Show
16 January 7:30 PM
In The Flesh have created a powerful and dynamic appreciation of Pink Floyd’s timeless music in a mind-blowing show drawing on tracks from all their classic albums including The Piper at the Gates of Dawn right through A Saucerful of Secrets, Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall, The Final Cut, A Momentary Lapse of Reason and The Division Bell.
State of the art technology sits alongside traditional analogue equipment and instruments, including a Hammond organ (the same model that Richard Wright used no less), combined with the addition of surround sound that defined the true Pink Floyd concert experience. With an incredible attention to detail the show reflects the different periods of Pink Floyd’s hugely varied and influential career and a huge projection screen accompanies the music with specially commissioned film sequences that will leave audiences amazed!
