Billy Bremner's Rockfile plays the Rockpile hits and more on his Farewell Tour! Houston's own The Repeat Offenders open the show!Billy Bremner is perhaps known best for his work with the band Rockpile and bandmates Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds. Their seminal and sole studio 1980 album ‘Seconds of Pleasure’ featured ‘Teacher Teacher’, ‘Heart’ (with Bremner doing the lead vocal) and ‘If Sugar Was As Sweet As You’ and was the record that delivered the long held promise of the pub rock with it’s infectious mash up of roots and power pop.
But Bremner has a storied fifty year career beyond his work with Rockpile, stretching back to the 60s -- having released four solo albums and either played on records or worked as a sideman with an incredible list of artists including The Pretenders, Shakin’ Stevens, Carlene Carter, Little Richard, Johnny Cash, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Brenda Lee, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Shakin’ Stevens, Elvis Costello, Duane Eddy, Huey Lewis, The Rutles, The Coal Porters, Rosie Flores and more. The man is a guitarist’s guitarist in the best sense...there’s no need to wank when you know what you’re doing.
The band will lean heavily on material from the above mentioned ‘Seconds of Pleasure’ and the set will be peppered with a number of other chestnuts from throughout Bremner’s career.
