Long Street Blues Club: Gigs 2026
Monday 8th June 2026 - JOHN OTWAY & WILD WILLY BARRETT
Doors 7.45pm
We have been inundated with requests following John Otway's Big Band show last year to get Otway and Barrett back together. As part of a farewell tour we have finally been able to get them back! Complete rock n roll madness comes back to Devizes for one last time.
From schoolboy beginnings in Aylesbury to the present, via an 'unforgettable' Old Grey Whistle Test performance in '77, Otway and Barrett bring their farewell tour to Devizes.
Otway and Barrett have been gigging on and off for 50 years and are still master entertainers. The contrast between the dead pan humour of Barrett and mad onstage antics of Otway are hilarious to watch. John's lyrical genius and Willy's outstanding musicianship continue to entertain in spades!
We are putting tickets early for this show as we know demand will be huge. Make sure you see these two for one last time.

Saturday 5th September 2026 - Lightnin' Willie and the Poorboys
Doors 7.45pm
After a long absence we welcome back one of the club favourites from California Lightning Willie and his backing band The Poorboys
Lightnin’ Willie has a very distinctive approach to his music. He is a songwriter, singer and guitarist in that order. The sound is an irresistible blend of tradition and spontaneous creativity, with a deliciously insidious emphasis on the groove. It is a compelling, hard swinging brand of blues that, whenever he performs, packs the floor.
He has gone from the low down beer joints to become a staple on the international circuit, with wild stops along the way, from London’s Royal Albert Hall Igniter Series to Willie Nelson’s infamous 4th of July Picnic, where he appeared alongside Paula Nelson, Willie, Bob Dylan, and Leon Russell.
Touring the United States and Europe for over twenty years has given him the relaxed, confident and sometimes humorous quality of a seasoned performer. These attributes have won him stacks of enthusiastic praise from the press while landing his original tunes on numerous film and television soundtracks.
Lightnin’ Willie has the unique knack of bringing his audience into his ‘living room’ and making everyone comfortable while forgetting their problems for a couple of hours. At a recent show with legendary blues man Robert Cray they played to a packed house receiving a well deserved standing ovation. 2018 will find Willie on tour supporting his latest album No Black No White Just Blues.
Willie is backed by his superb band, The Poorboys - Giles King (harmonica), Aaron McRobbie (bass) and Paul 'Nobby' Birch (drums).

Friday 25th September 2026 - Skinny Molly
Doors 7.45pm
We are delighted to announce this new re-scheduled date for the magnificent Skinny Molly!
All tickets bought for the old date are, of course, valid for this new date.
This amazing live band is a major force on the Southern Rock scene. Skinny Molly's mantra is "Never let one fan leave a show disappointed"
The music and live reputation of the band caught the attention of legendary Ruf Records label president Thomas Ruf. Skinny Molly subsequently signed a deal with Ruf Records, becoming the second "southern rock" band to be signed in the wake of Ruf's expansion into the genre. At the time of the signing, Skinny Molly was in the studio cutting what would become their new and widely acclaimed CD, "Haywire Riot" released last year.
This is no retro act though... these guys stand on solid songs, unique playing and creative instrumentation and arrangements to make even the most jaded rock fan (or even country or blues fan) a fan for life. Jump on and enjoy the ride!
Their live sets are awesome so expect the modern southern rock they are known for mixed in with all the Skynyrd classics. They have sold out on the all the times they have been to the club. This will be no exception.
