Red Institution – Advance orders now being taken
Red Institution reflects a band that has grown together over the last decade. Very different influences, playing and writing styles blend in an album of broad strokes; an eclectic, characterful album that offers hope among so many modern concerns. As is the hallmark of progressive music, classical, jazz, rock, funk, pop and folk all have their say. At once anthemic and elegiac, informative and playful, reflective and impressionistic, the album very much echoes the live experience of the band - from gentle, tender moments to the driving, urgent and purposeful.
We’re launching the album at The Greystones, Sheffield gig, Friday 11th April, but you can order a copy now - to be shipped out by 11 April

We Are Not Alone
The 2017 studio album by The John Hackett Band - We Are Not Alone - offers a heady and eclectic mix of solid song-writing, swirling mellotron and on occasion, free improvisation.
Virtuosic flute and guitar performances are liberally littered throughout the memorable compositions.
John's brother, Steve Hackett, makes a special guest appearance on harmonica on the song Never Gonna Make A Dime, which tells the true story of the Hackett family's brief move to Canada in the Fifties.
Special double CD edition with bonus disc recorded live At The Classic Rock Society, 2016.
