Wilde has built his live sound around a harmonica that takes the place usually occupied by an electric lead guitar. He uses it for forceful riffs and extended solos as well as the more familiar blues phrases, with his voice and the backing band giving the songs their shape. The Newcastle date offers a chance to hear that approach in the intimate surroundings of The Cluny.
Will Wilde at The Cluny: blues with the harmonica up front
His album Blues Is Still Alive features guest guitarist Walter Trout and reached the top of the Independent Blues Broadcasters Association chart. That recent release gives the Newcastle gig a clear context beyond Wilde’s awards recognition: he is touring with original material and a sound that pushes beyond the traditional harmonica-led blues format.
The venue also highlights Wilde’s recent touring across Europe and his first US appearances. Those dates have taken his music to audiences beyond the UK blues circuit, but The Cluny offers a smaller-room setting in which the interaction between the harmonica, guitars and rhythm section can be heard up close.
Although the official announcement points to Blues Is Still Alive and his wider catalogue, it does not supply a complete Newcastle setlist. Likewise, no support act is confirmed on the venue page, so check the event listing nearer the show for any additions.
Tickets, doors and entry arrangements
Advance tickets are listed at £15. This is a 14-and-over show, and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. The Cluny is on Lime Street in Newcastle’s Ouseburn Valley, within walking distance of the city centre.
