Published 21st Jan 2013

Guitar virtuoso Robben Ford has, by popular demand, added another London date to his April tour of the UK. 

What's more, the new date will be made available to Planet Rock listeners first! Just check back here tomorrow to buy your tickets. 

Ford, who Musician magazine called one of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of the 20th Century," emerged from northern California in the ’60s as part of the Charles Ford Blues Band. In that group — formed with his brothers and named after their father — he supported blues legends Jimmy Witherspoon and Charlie Musselwhite, getting a hands-on education in the style. However, he truly developed his reputation in the jazz and pop world of the 1970s and ’80s as a solo artist, a member of the ground-breaking fusion group L.A. Express, and as a sideman with Joni Mitchell, Miles Davis, George Harrison, Bob Dylan and others.
