textures, through the funky interplay between drummer Duncan Parsons and bassist Jeremy
Richardson to the intricacies of Nick Fletcher’s lead guitar the group embrace pop, rock, jazz,
classical, funk and all stops in-between, from the tenderest of ballads to hair-raising
instrumental workouts!
John Hackett has been a much-loved and admired figure in the progressive rock scene since
the mid-70’s; best-known for his flute work with his brother, former Genesis guitarist, Steve
Hackett on albums such as Voyage of The Acolyte, Sketches of Satie and Please Don’t Touch,
alongside his own solo albums Checking Out Of London, Another Life
and The Piper Plays His Tune.
