John Otway + Wild Willy Barrett

John Otway & Wild Willy Barrett: The Final Straw Tour

Pigeonhole this duo at your peril! John Otway and Wild Willy Barrett are back on the road with their aptly named Final Straw Tour.

Still going after 40 years and still loved for their total in-yer-face originality, the contrast between the deadpan humour of Barrett and the mad onstage antics of Otway is hilarious to watch. John’s lyrical genius and Willy’s outstanding musicianship—he seems to play almost every stringed instrument known to man, plus a few hybrids of his own making!—almost become an added extra.

The Show

For any Otway/Barrett virgins out there who don’t know what to expect, be prepared for everything from bare-chested theremin playing to wah wah wheelie bin as the duo jumps from one hit and 40 near misses to another. It promises to be an amazing and irreverent performance by two master entertainers.
