Wilton Live 2 to go ahead in memory of Belko

Monday, 8 January 2024 00:00

After huge numbers of people attended the tribute concert in memory of Thom Belk on Saturday (6th January), a second event has been announced.

At times, it was one in, one out at the Rude Giant Beer House as the Salisbury music community came together to remember Thom and raise money in his name.

Local acts performed, including Robb Blake, who gave an emotional solo performance in tribute to his friend.

Salisbury Live have now announced a second event, Wilton Live 2.

Wilton Live was a concept put together by Thom Belk and Salisbury Live. Billed as ‘Salisbury Lives Little Brother’, Wilton Live was a massive success at its inaugural event in March 2023, with an eclectic mix of musical acts performing in the pubs, clubs and the town's Micheal Herbert Hall.

Colin Holton from Salisbury Live said, "As a tribute to Thom, we are delighted to confirm that Wilton Live 2 on Saturday, January 27th at Wilton Community Centre will still be going ahead as planned. Doors are 3 pm-11pm.

"Wilton Live was Thoms's baby; he had strong family ties to the town, and Wilton Live 2 will be a very fitting tribute to him."
