Jon Trout, Mitch Laddie, Laurence Jones, Andrew Elt

As most people know 2014 was to be a celebration of Walter Trout’s 25th Anniversary performing as a solo artist. Unfortunately his well-publicised medical problems have meant that Walter cannot be on the road this year. However Walter and his management did not want the year to pass by without some celebration – so this is what they have planned:

Walter Trout’s band comprising Rick Knapp, Sammy Avila and Michael Leasure together with road manager and sometime vocalist Andrew Elt and soundman Phil Casebury will be touring in late November and early December playing a set of Walter Trout songs drawn from throughout the great mans career.

The band will be joined by Walter Trout protégés Mitch Laddie and Laurence Jones to assist with guitar playing as well as Walter’s son Jon Trout who proved at the recent Walter Trout benefit concert that the future of Trout guitar players is assured.

A percentage of the gig fees will be paid toward the recuperation costs of Walter Trout as he struggles to adapt to life with his new liver.
