WILLE & THE BANDITS (Generally Available)
Booked by Matt.

Wille & The Bandits

Wille and the Bandits’ music covers a wide range of genres from Folk and World music to Blues and Rock. With the versatility of Wille’s lap steel and guitar playing, the rhythmic diversity of percussionist Andrew Naumann and the sonic range of Matt’s Upright bass and six string electric bass, they always keep audiences guessing. Often likened to the greats of the 70′s such as Led Zeppelin, Santana and Pink Floyd, this comparison, although bold, only scrapes the surface of the Bands influences and sound.

Johnny Dickinson Benefit Album Download - Posted June 27, 2012

The message below is from Dave Smith, manager for Johnny Dickinson.

You may, or may not, be aware that last year, Singer/Guitarist Johnny Dickinson was diagnosed with a form of Blood cancer, and as a result, needed to have a course of Chemotherapy, which meant, of course, that his touring schedule was cancelled. He got through the treatment OK, and was set to start working again, but then went down with some kind of virus infection. After a course of antibiotics, he seemed to be on the mend, but then felt a tingling sensation through his legs, which spread through the rest of his body, eventually leaving him paralysed. It turns out that he’s suffering from a very rare condition, which is brought about when the immune system becomes dysfunctional, attacks itself, and begins to destroy some part or multiple parts of the central nervous system….Guillain barre Syndrom.  Coupled with the Cancer, this condition is VERY serious, and the Doctors have said that he may be in intensive care for 12 months or so.

This came as a total shock to me, as I’m sure it does to you too, and I spent much time trying to think up ideas of how to help him and his family through this very trying time. Anyone who knows Johnny, will also know that he has 4 children to support, and that after so much time not working, things have become increasingly difficult for them.

The idea I came up with, was to ask fellow musicians to donate a song or tune, which I could use as part of a compilation download. The Musicians thought it was a good idea, and we have a resulting download album, with tracks from: Johnny Dickinson, Jan Akkerman, Tommy Emmanuel, John Renbourn, Tony McManus, Jennifer Batten, Aziz Ibrahim, John Smith, Clive Carroll, Wizz Jones & Thom Bresh

The album can be downloaded HERE. (www.johnnydickinson.net) The system works through PAYPAL and the price of the album is only £5.00, and I will be presenting Johnny with a get well message including everyone’s name on it who buys one!!
