Blues Royalty

Legend could be BB’s middle name, he’s been entertaining the world – with the help of his guitar Lucille – since the 1940s. His fluid playing style has had an enormous influence on the development or rock, and he was listed by Rolling Stone magazine as the third most influential guitarist of all time.

At 85 he’s got to be one of the oldest performers at the festival, and still livelier than many musicians a quarter of his age!
