Self-taught blues guitarist Robben Ford will be joined by Walter Trout for a pair of Bluesfest sideshows, including one date in Sydney.

A shining light in modern electric guitar playing, Ford is accelerating into his 63rd year, while Trout is as prolific as any of his peers, having amassed 22 solo albums over a long career.
