Steven Wilson a révélé l'identité de deux nouveaux musiciens qui l'accompagneront lors de sa prochaine tournée qui aura lieu à l'occasion de la sortie de son nouvel album, "Hand. Cannot. Erase.". Guthrie Govan et Marco Minnemann s'absenteront à la fin de la tournée européenne pour se consacrer à leur propre projet, The Aristocrats.
Ce sont donc deux musiciens britanniques qui les remplaceront temporairement: Dave Kilminster a été l'un des principaux guitaristes de Roger Waters pendant huit ans (pour ceux qui sont vu le show "The Wall", c'est lui qui joue le solo de la fin de 'Comfortably Numb'); le batteur Craig Blundell a travaillé pour des sociétés telles que Premier Drum Co, Roland U.S. et Paiste.
Voici le communiqué FB de Steven Wilson:
"I’m very happy to announce that I will be starting the Americas leg of the Hand. Cannot. Erase. tour with a show in Chile at the Teatro Cariola in Santiago on 8th May.
This will also be the first show with a changed band line up, as Guthrie Govan (Official) and Marco Minnemann will be departing at the end of the European tour to fulfill touring commitments with their own band The Aristocrats. These 2 guys were always going to be a very hard act to follow, but I’m very pleased to introduce two world class British musicians in the shape of Dave Kilminster on guitar, and Craig Blundell on drums.
Many of you will know that for the last 8 years Dave has been the principal guitar player in the Roger Waters band (if you saw The Wall show you will have seen him on top of the Wall playing the solo at the end of Comfortably Numb!), while Craig has primarily concentrated on being an international clinician for Premier Drum Co, Roland U.S. and and Paiste. Both are extraordinarily gifted musicians and I’m honoured to welcome them to the SW band."
