Djabe & Steve Hackett – tour dates

Djabe are a Hungarian Jazz/Prog-Band. The band was formed in 1996 and the name means something like “freedom”. They have released over 20 albums to date, among them a lot of live albums. Djabe are:

Tamas Barabás– bass guitar
Attila Egerhazi – guitar, percussion
Áron Koós-Hutás – trumpet, flugelhorn
Péter Kaszás – drums, vocal
János Nagy – keyboards (until 2022)
Zoltán Bubenyák – keyboards (since 2022)

For Genesis fans, the band is of course of interest due to their continuing collaboration with Steve Hackett. There are many releases of that collaboration.

The first release to feature Steve Hackett was Sipi Benefit Concertin 2009. The band then released the first live album with special guest Steve Hackett, called In The Footsteps Of Attila and Genghis, in 2010. Steve was also guesting on their 15th Anniversary Concert, which was also captured on DVD in the same year.

Summer Storms And Rocking Rivers was the next Djabe & Steve Hackett release and became available in 2013 through Esoteric / Cherry Red. It was a live recording, and many more followed – sometimes even strictly limited, like the CD/DVD It Is Never The Same Twice. Gulli Briem did also appear on that one. Most of the releases are available on vinyl as well, and sometimes even as Reel to Reel tapes.
