They'll perform stripped-down duet versions of tracks from their forthcoming solo albums, with companionship provided on the road by Sharpville's one-eyed shih tzu Genghis.

Promoters say: "Together, Sharpville and Wilde exude hints of a virtuosic bygone era. Two heavyweight lead guitarist/singer-songwriters, slugging it out in harmony, unleashing the deepest of emotions into all they do. Add to that the world's friendliest musical puppy, and you won't want to go home!"
