This Thursday a 4 pm please welcome Steve Hackett and Steve Rothery to Captain Phil's Planet as we preview and discuss their new collaborative album titled, "The Roaring Waves."

Hackett on The Roaring Waves:
“I suspect that most guitarists tend to make albums where people try to outplay each other and show their chops to an enormous degree. I'll be very interested to see what the reaction is from fans. If you're expecting something typically proggy, I don't think this is it. It's more cinematic, almost ambient at times”.

Waves has been in the making for the best part of eight years, though the initial idea of the pair making an album together was first mooted around three years before that, but their respective day jobs and touring itineraries kept them from working together for months at a time. Though recording sessions at the Racket Club, and their respective home studios yielded a rich seam of creativity.

“It was a bit old school our approach, like the idea of mates getting together in the garage and playing and hanging out.”

Among Missouri’s modern musical masters is composer, guitarist, and Imrat guitar inventor Todd Mosby. The St. Louis, MO-based artist’s latest album, American Heartland, is the second chapter in a musical travelogue that tone-paints the geography and spirit of America. It’s a sonic tribute to the only state that could produce a Todd Mosby.
“I have a lot of roots in where I grew up,” says Mosby. “It’s really isolated, but it’s also very rich in musical history and culture. You can absorb it all and still have the freedom to develop your own voice.”
Mosby is an award-winning musician who regularly collaborates with some of the most revered studio musicians in the industry. His music synthesizes the sounds of Missouri into a genre-defying, evocative language. A virtuoso musician with a painter’s imagination, Mosby uses jazz, folk, New Age, rock, blues, North Indian classical music, bossa nova, and more to create richly-textured geotemporal soundscapes.
