Musical tribute show to Phil Collins and Genesis, fronted by singer and drummer Chris Hayward, at the Swansea Grand Theatre.
Seriously Collins play the Swansea Grand Theatre on Friday 26 February, a tribute to Phil Collins and Genesis. The show runs around two hours and works its way from Collins' solo hits to Genesis anthems, played with authentic arrangements and the iconic double drum feature. You'll hear In The Air Tonight and Another Day In Paradise among the set, and the band describes itself as the UK's most authentic Phil Collins and Genesis tribute show.
Singer and drummer Chris Hayward fronts the band, which they describe as world-class. The double drum setup is a particular nod to the Genesis era, and the set covers both sides of the coin: the pop-leaning solo material and the prog-rock roots of the band. It's a good range to pull from, and the two-hour runtime gives them plenty of room to work through both.
Beyond this full show, the band also tours with a six-piece version that uses recorded horns for smaller rooms, and an even more intimate 90-minute solo show. They tour with their own PA system, so they're set up to handle the sound themselves regardless of the venue. The Swansea date is the full version, though, so you'll get the full band and the double drums on stage.
