English multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Steven Willson returns to Australia in November for a five-date tour.
The prog-rock veteran, best known as the founder of experimental rockers Porcupine Tree, is heading our way in support of his sprawling new concept album, The Overview. Released last Friday (March 14), the record runs 42 minutes and contains just two tracks – ‘Objects Outlive Us’ and ‘The Overview’. The intricately plotted album explores the shift in perception of astronauts viewing Earth from space.
Wilson will be joined on stage by Nick Beggs on bass (Mute Gods, Steve Hackett), jazz keyboardist Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Ray Manzarek), drummer Craig Blundell (Steve Hackett, Frost) and guitarist Randy McStine (Marco Minnemann, The Fringe).
The tour begins at Perth’s Astor Theatre on Wednesday, November 12 and continues with dates at Adelaide’s Her Masjesty’s Theatre on Thursday, November 13, Melbourne’s The Forum on Saturday, November 15, Sydney’s ICC Theatre on Sunday, November 16 and Brisbane’s QPAC Concert Hall on Monday, November 17.
