By: BWW News Desk Mar. 06, 2017
Former Genesis guitarist and prog legend StEve Hackett returns to the UK with an exciting new show for a 15-date tour in April and May.
Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the classic Genesis album Wind and Wuthering, Steve and his band will be performing several tracks from the album as well as fan favourites such as 'The Musical Box' and other Genesis numbers never performed before by Steve's band including 'Inside & Out' and 'Anyway'.
Steve chats about the tour in the video!
He also says "I'm excited to bring my latest show involving a new set of Genesis and Hackett numbers to the UK in 2017!" - StEve Hackett
With an established solo career spanning over 40 years, Steve will also be performing some of his popular hits such as 'The Steppes', 'Serpentine', 'Every Day' and the first ever live performance of 'Rise Again' from his 1999 album Darktown. Steve will also be introducing fans to new music from his forthcoming studio album The Night Siren, out on 24th March.
Joining Steve on the tour are musicians Roger King (keyboards), Gary O'Toole (drums/percussion), Rob Townsend (saxes/flutes), Nick Beggs (bass, stick & twelve string) and Nad Sylvan on vocals.
Since the 1970's Steve has had a remarkable musical career, releasing more than 30 solo albums, seven Genesis albums and working alongside Steve Howe of YES with supergroup GTR. Renowned for being one of the most innovative rock musicians of our time, in 2010 he was inducted into the Rock Hall Of Fame.
Continuing to impress with his outstanding live shows 'Genesis Revisited with Classic Hackett' is a tour not to missed.
