Black Star Riders duo Ricky Warwick and Damon Johnson have announced that they’ll tour across the UK later this year on the Sonic Acoustic Attack tour.
The pair will perform material by Black Star Riders, Thin Lizzy, The Almighty, Alice Cooper and Brother Cane, with the shows also featuring spoken word segments.
Warwick tells Planet Rock: “Two hours-plus of acoustic carnage and mayhem with brother Johnson? Who’d have thought bits of wood with wires could be so sonically invigorating? Well you’re about to find out.”
Johnson adds: “Ricky has inspired my musical efforts in so many ways and we have become best mates. These Warwick Johnson performances always showcase our respect for each other and our love of music. And it’s a great night out!”
The shows will get under way at Stoke’s Eleven on September 25 and wrap up with a performance at Bannerman’s in Edinburgh on October 14.
