Steve Hackett – former lead guitarist with prog rock giants Genesis –- is coming to the Cliffs Pavilion this month, to celebrate his latest chart album and his many years in the music business.
The set list will cover a huge part of his discography, with a selection of solo material from early album, including Voyage of the Acolyte – which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year – and a set of Genesis classics which he hasn’t played for years.
These days he tours and writes songs with his wife, Jo, a writer who he describes as a fantastic creative partner, as well as someone to hold hands with.
“Touring isn’t so great when you’re on your own” he said, “but having my wife with me makes it so much better.”
Steve, a renowned and skilled guitarist, first picked up the the instrument aged 12 when he dad bought him one.
He says: “For years before I played the harmonica, and then my dad realised I was getting serious about music when I asked for a chromatic model.
