Press release:
Acclaimed Modernist Art-Rock architect Steven Wilson returns to Australia and New Zealand to present his most spectacular show yet, with four astonishing audio-visual extravaganzas.
Following the release of TO THE BONE, his most successful album to date, Steven will perform three hours of mesmerising music drawn from both his recent catalogue, as well as classic PORCUPINE TREE songs, some of which have never previously been performed by his solo band.
Those whom have previously witnessed Steven Wilson live in concert will already be acquainted with the breathtaking wonderment and beauty of Steven’s lavish mindscape, which provides a perfect adjunct to his otherworldly music. Steven has outdone even the magnificence of previous tours to present an awe-inspiring kaleidoscope of evocative imagery and colour.
As well as cinematic visuals and driving futurist rock, aficionados will be treated to the astounding musicianship of Steven’s band. Spectral electronics, gut-wrenching sub-harmonics, pounding drums, elegiac hyper-space ambience and dizzying, squalling guitars are a staple of Steven’s concerts. Steven’s band for these dates consists of: Nick Beggs (Bass), Craig Blundell (Drums), Adam Holzman (Keyboards) and Alex Hutchings (Guitar).
Join Steven Wilson this November for what will uncountably be a series of concerts never to be forgotten.
