Due to Matt Long’s ongoing treatment for cancer, Catfish will be unable to appear on Friday 20 September in Stage 2. However his good friend, blue harmonica player and singer Will Wilde together with his band will be appearing instead. All tickets remain valid for this concert. We hope to welcome back Catfish in 2025 and in the meantime do check out Matt’s GoFund Me page for updates and to donate https://www.gofundme.com/f/matt-long-cancer-treatment-fundraiser

Will Wilde has taken the harmonica way beyond its traditional blues roots since he first emerged on the music scene, always pushing forward and evolving his sound. He gained popularity on Youtube with his awe-inspiring harmonica covers of rock guitar solos, such as Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird. Throughout 2022/23 Wilde toured with his critically acclaimed hard rock band Bad Luck Friday, but 2024 sees him return to his blues roots with the release of a new solo album coming in 2025.
Wilde’s hard-edged harmonica steals the spotlight from the traditional blues rock guitar, with a sound that owes as much to Gary Moore as it does to Sonny Boy Williamson.
Wilde has released four studio albums and one live album: Unleashed (2010), Raw Blues (2013), Live In Hamburg (2015), Bring It On Home (2018) and Bad Luck Friday (2022), as well as appearing as a guest harmonica player on albums by Walter Trout, Earl Thomas, Toby Lee, Dani Wilde, Marcus Malone, Krissy Matthews and Brave Rival.
Wilde was nominated in the UK Blues Awards for "Instrumentalist of the Year 2024".
