Rock legends Toyah and Robert Fripp defy age on Blink 182’s ‘Growing Up’ cover
Robert Fripp and Toyah Willcox have been making waves with their Sunday Lunch recitals, and their latest cover of Blink 182’s hit “Dammit” is sure to please fans. Departing from their usual classic rock renditions, this dynamic duo brings a pop-punk twist to their performance, injecting it with their own unique energy.
In their playful rendition, Fripp and Willcox exude youthfulness and joy, deviating from the song’s original theme of growing up. With Fripp’s cheeky cry of “Bollocks!” kicking off the performance, the pair dive into the song with infectious enthusiasm, capturing the essence of young love.
“Welcome to Toyah and Robert’s Sunday lunch,” Fripp warmly greets the audience, as Willcox adds a touch of allure with her comment on their “elderly edition.” Their charm and charisma have earned them a spot at the prestigious Glastonbury Festival for the second consecutive year, where they are set to grace the Avalon Stage.
Expressing their excitement for the festival, the duo encourages fans to explore the Field of Avalon and immerse themselves in the diverse offerings at the heart of the event. Ahead of their Glastonbury performance, Cherry Red is releasing an expanded version of Toyah’s 1982 live album “Warrior Rock – Toyah On Tour,” capturing the essence of her electrifying performances during the Changling tour at the iconic Hammersmith Odeon.
Available for pre-order now, this album is a testament to Toyah’s enduring talent and stage presence. Stay tuned for more updates from Classic Rock and exclusive special offers delivered straight to your inbox. Don’t miss out on the latest news and releases from these legendary artists!
