"I'm excited to bring my latest show involving a new set of Genesis and Hackett numbers to North America in 2017!" Hackett says.

With an established solo career spanning over 40 years, Hackett will also be performing some of his popular hits such as 'The Steppes', 'Serpentine', 'Every Day' and the first ever live performance of 'Rise Again' from his 1999 album Darktown.  Additionally, Hackett will introduce fans to some new music from his forthcoming album, which is due out early spring 2017.

Joining Hackett on the tour are musicians Roger King (keyboards), Gary O'Toole (drums/percussion), Rob Townsend (saxes/flutes), Nick Beggs (bass, stick & twelve string) and Nad Sylvan on vocals.

Since the 1970's Hackett has released more than 30 solo albums, seven Genesis albums and working alongside Steve Howe of YES with supergroup GTR. Renowned for being one of the most innovative rock musicians of our time, in 2010 he was inducted into the Rock Hall Of Fame.
