Peter Gabriel - I/O: The Tour 2023

Singing legend Peter Gabriel has announced plans to tour the UK and Europe for his first solo shows outside of North America in almost a decade. Peter, who is making a welcome return to these shores since his 2014 Back to Front Tour, is to perform four concerts in the UK in June 2023 following a series of European dates which start in Krakow, Poland, on May 18. His UK dates include a visit to the Utilita Arena in Birmingham on Saturday 17 June. The i/o tour, which is produced by Live Nation , will then continue in North America in late summer/autumn. Peter Gabriel fans will get to hear the star perform new material from his forthcoming album i/o, as well as delving into his impressive back catalogue of music. He will be joined on stage by regular band-mates Tony Levin, David Rhodes and Manu Katché. Peter said of the tour: "It's been a while and I am now surrounded by a whole lot of new songs and am excited to be taking them out on the road for a spin. Look forward to seeing you out there."



Peter Gabriel first came to international prominence with the success of Genesis, a band that he co-founded while still at school. Since leaving Genesis in 1975, his recording career has included 11 studio albums, film soundtracks for Alan Parker's 'Birdy', Martin Scorsese's 'The Last Temptation of Christ' and Philip Noyce's 'Rabbit Proof Fence' as well as numerous live albums. His wider musical career has included multiple Grammy Awards, the world-renowned Real World Studios, the formation of the Real World Records label, and in 1980 the creation of WOMAD, the festival that has launched the careers of many artists from around the world and has just celebrated its 40th anniversary.



He also co-founded the human rights organization WITNESS (Witness.org) in 1992, the organisation that pioneers the use of cameras and technology in human rights campaigning, and in 2007, alongside Sir Richard Branson, he founded The Elders (theelders.org) which was launched by Nelson Mandela. In 2006, Peter Gabriel was awarded the prestigious Man of Peace title by The Nobel Peace Laureates and in 2008 was also included in the Time 100 list. He has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. He remains engaged in a wide variety of tech-based businesses throughout a variety of creative industries
