Steve Hackett has announced a UK run of live dates for his Genesis Greats, Lamb Highlights & Solo Tour for October, culminating in a headline show at London's prestigious Royal Albert Hall on October 23. Special guest Amanda Lehmann will be joining the whole of the UK tour on guitar and vocals.  

Hackett has spent much of the year performing live across North America, including this year's Cruise To The Edge, and is currently touring across Europe, where he will play at the final Night Of The Prog festival at Loreley in Germany.

"I’m thrilled with the response to my latest tour, Genesis Greats, Lamb Highlights & Solo which has already received fantastic reactions in Europe," Hackett enthuses. "I’m hugely looking forward to bringing this tour to the UK, culminating with the special Royal Albert Hall show…"

Hackett will also perform four live dates in Hungary with his longtime jazz fusion collaborators Djabe in August before resuming Genesis Greats, Lamb Highlights & Solo Tour dates.
