The legendary Paul McCartney has confirmed the dates of his brand new 'One On One' tour. The tour promises an impressive re-designed set with dozens of hits from the classic back-catalogue covering McCartney’s entire career in The Beatles, Wings and Solo. Paul promises nearly three hours of the greatest music from the last 50 years.
The 'One On One' Tour will debut a brand new production and utilizes state of the art audio and video technology, lasers and pyrotechnics for an unforgettable experience.
We’re quickly approaching festival season and Paul McCartney is an act always well received on festival stages. It has been announced that Paul will be the third and final headliner for Pinkpop festival’s 47th year. Paul McCartney will be the closing act on Sunday 12 June 2016.
Paul's band of the last 10+ years features– Paul "Wix" Wickens - keyboards, Rusty Anderson – guitar, Abe Laboriel Jr - drums and of course, Ashdown artist Brian Ray on bass/guitar.
Brian Ray will be on stage with Paul McCartney using his Ashdown rig, which consists of a BTA-400 all valve bass head, ABM-900 head and supported with a custom shop 210/115 cab and 610 cab. In an interview with Guitarist Magazine in 2010 Brian said "I use Gibson SG basses. For amps, I use the Ashdown 900 Series. No pedal effects on the bass - just straight in. That's pretty much it."
Paul’s 'One On One' tour opens in North America and travels to Dusseldorf, Germany on 28th May, with other European dates succeeding including dates in Munich, Madrid, Paris, Bergen and Prague.
