Wille and the Bandits to rock Exeter Phoenix

Fans of genre-defying blues rock are in for a treat as Wille and the Bandits bring their electrifying live show to Exeter Phoenix on Thursday, 13 March 2025.

The performance is part of the band's upcoming UK headline tour, promising a night of powerful riffs, emotive ballads, and musical mastery.

Fresh off their acoustic duo tour with vocal powerhouse Beth Hart, Wille and the Bandits are gearing up to deliver a full-band experience that showcases their signature sound. From searing lap steel guitar solos to captivating rhythms, the band is known for blurring the lines between rock, blues, and acoustic vibes.

"We're hitting the road this March for an incredible UK tour, bringing our electrifying live show to venues across the country!" the band said. "With a powerful mix of rock, acoustic vibes and genre-defying energy, we're crafting a set that promises to be unforgettable. See you there!"

Joining the band for the Exeter show will be Shropshire singer-songwriter Dan Owen, whose soulful voice has earned praise from Fleetwood Mac's Mick Fleetwood, who called him "a phenomenal talent." Owen has performed at The Great Escape and Bluesfest London, as well as touring internationally with Birdy.

Wille and the Bandits have built a reputation for their dynamic performances, having played stages around the world from the London Olympics to Kazakhstan and Broadway.

Their dedication to their craft has landed them on BBC Radio 1's Top Ten Must-See Bands at Glastonbury and secured support slots with legends like Joe Bonamassa, Status Quo, and Deep Purple.

The band's roots lie in Cornwall, where their connection to the landscape and community continues to shape their sound. Their music, which seamlessly moves between thunderous rock and introspective acoustic ballads, has drawn comparisons to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and John Butler Trio.
