Not to be confused with namesake fiery former Leeds United midfielder, Billy Bremner started life as a member of Lulu and the Luvvers. However, he's best known for being, with Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds and Terry Williams, a quarter of Rockpile, one of the finest bands ever to emerge from the United Kingdom. A fearsomely accomplished guitarist, he was also the occasional lead vocalist (hit single Heart) as well as a great songwriter (Trouble Boys - Dave Edmunds, Thin Lizzie). Since the break up of Rockpile he's had an illustrious career as a solo performer, as a member of the Pretenders (that's him playing the lead guitar on Back On The Chain Gang) and most recently as a producer and all round living legend in his adopted home, Sweden.
Here on a rare UK visit, you can expect a truly amazing version of much of Rockpile's material and much more.
