Security Project featuring Jerry Marotta, the drummer from Gabriel's classic line-up (1977-1986), plus Trey Gunn from King Crimson, on touch guitar.

Rounding out the band from Shriekback and Sky Cries Mary is Michael Cozzi on guitar and co-founder of Gig Performer David Jameson on keyboards and Eigenharp. The addition of Happy Rhodes, with her 4-octave vocal range, fulfills the band's promise of re-envisioning the music of Peter Gabriel.

Leave your expectations at the door and be prepared to hear Peter Gabriel's genre-less music like you've never heard it performed live before.
