Artist Bio

Legendary guitarist Steve Hackett has announced his Genesis Extended Tour, featuring a selection of classics to include some of the gems he had to sacrifice on the Award winning Genesis Revisited live shows. With a career and repertoire spanning decades between Genesis and his outstanding solo work, this will be the last opportunity for fans to see Hackett perform a whole set from the seminal prog band’s catalogue.

An enthusiastic Steve Hackett explains: "Due to the success of the Genesis Revisited shows, in 2014 we’re extending both the dates and the concept. We’ll launch into a full Genesis set with favourites from this year such as The Musical Box, Dancing with the Moonlit Knight and Supper’s Ready along with the addition of other Genesis classics which are often requested and the audiences deserve to hear... I’m really excited about this!"

New live material for the Genesis Extended Tour will include performances of “Squonk” from Trick of the Tail”, “Lilywhite Lilith” from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, and “The Knife” from Trespass.

Steve Hackett was Genesis’ guitarist from 1971 to 1977 and is the first ex-member to re-record and tour that part of the band’s material in Genesis Revisited I (1996) and II (2012). Taking the stage again with Steve Hackett is an exceptional team of top class musicians, including Roger King on keyboards, Gary O’Toole on drums, percussion and vocals, Rob Townsend on sax, flute and percussion, Nick Beggs on bass & twelve string and Nad Sylvan on vocals.

The Genesis Extended Show will visit North America once more in 2014. It will be a chance to celebrate the success of the Genesis Revisited - Live at Hammersmith CD/DVD box set and Hackett’s recent Prog Award for best Live Event, again for that famous Hammersmith night.

Talking about Hackett’s astounding live performance, Classic Rock Prog magazine wrote: ’a faithful, inspired trip down memory lane which reaffirms the majesty of many of progs defining moments. Hearing a packed house inquire in unison, ’A flower?’ is a spine-tingling experience’; ’spine-tingling’ was also the word used by the Newcastle’ Chronicle to describe the brilliance of his guitar solo, while Fireworks called the show ’magnificent in every respect’ and Classic Rock Society defined it as ’two hours and a half of pure joy for any Genesis fan’. The Daily Mail was particularly impressed with Steve’s band, able to ’match the studio recordings and even improve on them’.

If you missed the show or the show missed your favourite track, here’s your chance to relive the timeless magic that is Genesis, thanks to guitar wizard Steve Hackett and his remarkable live band. Once again, back to make everyone happy.
