Sweden Rock announces Billy F. Gibbons for 2023 in this post:
There are still quite a lot of bands left to announce for the coming festival, but to tie you over to the next bundle announcement we are happy to let you know that Billy Gibbons & the BFGs are confirmed to play on Saturday, June 10th.
Being the guitarist and singer of ZZ Top since 1969, Billy Gibbons is one of the true legends of rock. In recent times, he is also a prominent solo artist. The Caribbean-flavored album Perfectamundo (2015), Big Bad Blues (2018) – the title says it all – and Hardware (2021) have all been praised by fans and critics alike.
In 2023, Billy and his band – including none other than Matt Sorum (ex-Guns N’ Roses, The Cult and Velvet Revolver) on drums and guitarist Austin Hanks, – will be doing a few select European shows, and we’re happy to announce that SRF is one of those lucky chosen few.
More bands to be announced shortly!
