Former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett has officially announced his first round of 2027 North American concert dates. The legendary musician has scheduled nearly 20 performances across the continent for the upcoming tour.
Billed as the Best of Genesis & Solo Gems, the tour continues Hackett's tradition of showcasing material from his extensive catalog. Fans can expect a dynamic setlist drawn from his history with the iconic rock band Genesis as well as his solo career.
"I'll be bringing this thrilling new show out in 2027 to celebrate the very best of Genesis, including the biggest fan favorites, as well as solo classics, Hackett said in a press release announcing the shows. "It will be a blast!"
Before the 2027 North American leg begins, Hackett has a busy schedule ahead. Following the conclusion of his current U.K. tour on October 26, he will perform five dates in Italy this November. He is also set to resume live shows with three solo acoustic performances in East Sussex, England, in early February 2026. Additionally, the guitarist will participate in next year's Cruise to the Edge in early April.
The North American tour officially kicks off on April 10, 2027, in Atlanta. Hackett will then play 16 more concerts, including stops in Washington, D.C., New York, Buffalo, and Toronto. The month-long tour is scheduled to wrap up on May 6 in Québec.
Hackett will be joined on the road by a talented group of musicians. The band lineup includes keyboardist Lalle Larsson, singer Nad Sylvan, bassist and guitarist Jonas Reingold, multi-instrumentalist Rob Townsend, and drummer Felix Lehrmann.
