David Gilmour has released a clip showing him in rehearsal for this year's live dates. The low-key footage finds Gilmour playing Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here alongside fellow guitarist Ben Worsley, with Gilmour's dog Wesley seemingly enjoying the relaxed vibes.
This isn't the first time Wesley – a two-year-old hound who may or may not be a Kelpie/Alsatian cross according to a local dog expert we just asked – has enlivened one of Gilmour's videos. Earlier this year, he made a special appearance in the video for The Piper's Call, the first track to be taken from Gilmour's new album Luck And Strange, which is scheduled for release on September 6 via Sony Music.
Gilmour’s touring band for his upcoming shows, which kick off at Rome's Circus Maximus on September 27 and includes dates in London, Los Angeles and New York, will find the former Pink Floyd man joined by Worsley as well as Guy Pratt on bass, Greg Phillinganes and Rob Gentry on keyboards, Adam Betts on drums and Louise Marshall and The Webb Sisters, Hattie and Charley, on background vocals.
