Former Genesis guitarist and prog legend Steve Hackett is returning with an exciting new show for a 15-date UK tour next spring after his outstanding performance at this year’s inaugural Stone Free Festival.

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 such as “Inside & Out” and “Anyway”.

"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 album, which is due out early spring 2017.

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.
