The John Hackett Band come to Ewyas Harold Memorial Hall for a night of prog rock on Saturday, September 29.
Progressive rock flute player, guitarist, keyboard player and singer John is best known for his work with his brother Steve Hackett, the former Genesis guitarist.
Since 1975 he has recorded and toured with Steve in Europe, USA and Japan alongside a career as a solo flautist and session player. The band is full of exceptional players who weave beautiful themes from atmospheric soundscapes to funk and rock.
The John Hackett Band will be performing music from their new album We Are Not Alone released through Esoteric Antenna Records, along with songs from John’s earlier albums Checking Out Of London and Another Life.
Their guests for the evening are Kent-based band The Kentish Spires whose debut album The Last Harvest was recorded at the Piggery Studios in Garway Hill and produced by Danny Chang. Released in July this year, the album has already gained outstanding reviews from the UK and Europe, as far afield as Australia and Japan. The band features Lucie V who is being hailed as the next big female rock vocalist to come out of the UK.
Doors open at 7.30. Tickets available through Ticketsource.co.uk or on the door on the night.
