Van der Graaf Generator frontman Peter Hammill has announced a run of Italian dates for November. These will be Hammill's first solo shows since he performed in Japan in October 2023. Italy was, of course, a stronghold for Van der Graaf Generator in the 1970s and the band's stock has remained high there ever since.
Speaking on his website, Hammill says, "At this stage of life it's unlikely that I'm going to head out on long tours anymore. But that doesn't mean that I've given up on the idea of playing live. I'm therefore happy to announce that I'll be doing five shows in Italy in November. I'll also be doing two shows in Athens in January 2025."
