The award-winning British blues icon and guitar legend ROBIN TROWER will take the stage at The Factory at The District on Sunday, October 11.

Following his departure from 1960’s baroque rockers Procol Harum, the exceptionally gifted guitarist Robin Trower set out to forge a solo career assembling a new band bringing in James Dewar on vocal and bass duty, and Reg Isidore on drums. The new power trio set the tone for Robin’s 1973 debut solo LP “Twice Removed from Yesterday,” but it was the follow up, 1974’s “Bridge of Sighs” that would catapult Trower into international guitar hero status.

“Bridge of Sighs” is a titanic sounding rock album featuring some truly mesmerizing guitar from Trower. The title track and gems such as “Day of the Eagle,” “In this Place,” “Little Bit of Sympathy,” and the exquisite “Lady Love” are outstanding numbers with Trower’s guitar playing right up there with the most celebrated guitar Gods of the era.

In the five decades that followed this million-selling album, Robin Trower’s career has been an act of quiet rebellion. Rewind the reels of the British guitarist’s backstory and you’ll find an artist who has always rolled the dice rather than take the path of least resistance. A literal lifetime since he first stepped onto the British blues circuit as a cub gunslinger, that fabled Trower power shows no sign of burning out. In fact, the iconic guitarist’s late-period acceleration is something to behold, sweeping up new fans alongside, hardcore supporters who have followed his every move. During this time, he’s flowed from his own projects to collaborations with everyone from Jack Bruce to Brian Ferry to Maxi Priest releasing well over 30 albums.

His latest album is out now “Robin Trower LIVE - 50th Anniversary Edition.” This new edition includes the landmark 1975 Stockholm performance available to listen to in full for the first time. For more information, visit www.RobinTrower.com.
