Written by Jon Stickler
Steve Hackett will perform with his band and a live orchestra in October.
The former Genesis guitarist will play six Genesis Revisited shows, in Nottingham, Manchester, London, Birmingham, Gateshead and Glasgow, accompanied by his band and a 41-piece orchestra. Speaking about the dates, Hackett said:
"I always hoped that the Genesis music would one day involve an orchestra and I'm proud to say I'll now be able to make that dream a reality on my next British tour, involving my own extraordinary rock band alongside a full-sized orchestra."
The show will feature Genesis favourites, including Supper’s Ready, Dancing with the Moonlit Knight, Firth of Fifth and more, alongside Hackett's solo repertoire such as Shadow of the Hierophant, El Niño and The Steppes.
Tickets go on general sale at 10am on January 26.
