The Kinks guitarist will play London’s Barbican on April 11, to ‘celebrate the 50th anniversary of the revolutionary guitar sound that changed rock’n’roll’.

Davies suffered a serious stroke in 2004, but was recovered enough by 2006 to play guitar, walk and talk. Recent years have seen increased talk of a possible Kinks reunion, but nothing concrete has yet materialised.

Tickets go on sale on Friday (February 28) at 9am.
