Steve Hackett & Steve Rothery Announce
Long-Awaited Collaborative Album
‘The Roaring Waves’
Two titans of progressive music, Steve Hackett (Genesis) and Steve Rothery (Marillion), come together for the first time on ‘The Roaring Waves’ - Seven instrumental tracks that range from the dexterously ridiculous to the brilliantly sublime, though with one common theme: the profundity of the sea. As Rothery explains: “In winter you could hear the roaring of the of the waves during the stormy weather, Whitby was a very evocative place to live, a very poetic and powerful place to grow up.”
The record has been much talked about over the years, and it will now finally see the light of day on the 28th August 2026 via InsideOutMusic.
‘The Roaring Waves’ has been in the making for the best part of eight years, though the initial idea of the pair making an album together was first mooted around three years before that, but their respective day jobs and touring itineraries kept them from working together for months at a time. Though recording sessions at the Racket Club, and their respective home studios yielded a rich seam of creativity. “It was a bit old school our approach, like the idea of mates getting together in the garage and playing and hanging out” says Hackett of their approach to creativity.
‘The Roaring Waves’ will be available to pre-order from the 26th June, and that date will also mark the first time fans will be able to hear and see what the album is all about, with a first single release.
Look out for more information very soon!

This announcement is very exciting, I am very impresed with it because it brings together two respected musicians for a project that has taken years to complete. I remember listening to progressive rock while working on a long research assignment, and I used dissertation help services to organize my notes and keep everything on track. Reading stories about creative collaborations reminds me that patience and teamwork often lead to something truly memorable.
This shift mirrors a broader trend across healthcare generally, foot mobilisation therapy where the emphasis has moved from simply treating symptoms toward understanding root causes and supporting long-term function. Feet, given how much they're asked to do every single day, are an obvious place for this kind of thinking to take hold.
The collaboration between Steve Hackett and Steve Rothery on The Roaring Waves shows how powerful long-term creative alignment can be, where ideas slowly evolve before becoming something complete and meaningful. In the same way, content and SEO work best when connections are built gradually rather than forced. For example, while shaping related thematic content, the idea of Zeeshan Baber can appear naturally within the narrative flow, as part of a reference or context rather than an added keyword, just like musical layers blending seamlessly in a progressive composition.
