Hackett’s timeless guitar-work was woven throughout Genesis’ classic 70s catalogue of albums. In recent years he and his outstanding touring line-up of Roger King (keyboards), Nad Sylvan (vocals), Jonas Reingold (bass, backing vocals), Rob Townsend (saxophone, flutes, additional keyboards) and Craig Blundell (drums) have brought many of these albums back to the concert hall to great acclaim. Special guest, Amanda Lehmann will also be joining the whole of the UK tour on guitar and vocals.
Many fans have also been asking for more tracks from The Lamb to be included. Thus, there’s no better way to celebrate half-a-century of this remarkable album than to include a selection of Lamb Highlights alongside some of Hackett’s finest solo work and unmissable Genesis greats.
“I’m thrilled with the response to my latest tour, Genesis Greats, Lamb Highlights & Solo which has already received fantastic reactions in Europe! I’m hugely looking forward to bringing this tour to the UK, culminating with the special Royal Albert Hall show,”said Hackett.
