UK tribute band recreating the early songs of Genesis with period instruments, costumes, a slide show and synchronised lighting.
The Book of Genesis are playing Salisbury Arts Centre on Saturday 14 November, a full evening dedicated to the early songs of Genesis. They're a UK tribute band that focuses on the progressive rock era of the 1970s, and the set runs for around three hours.
It's not just the music they're after. They recreate the period with costumes and period musical instruments, an animated slide show and synchronised lighting that follows the songs. The whole thing is built around that specific 1970s era of the band, so it's a long look back at that particular sound rather than a run through their entire catalogue.
They describe themselves as a leading UK tribute band, and the three-hour runtime gives them plenty of room to work through the material without rushing. If you're into that era of Genesis, it's a fair amount of music to sit with in one go.
