Peter Gabriel live at the O2 Arena, London (Adam Hampton-Matthews)
Peter Gabriel has more UK arena shows coming up in Glasgow and Manchester.
Peter Gabriel is heading towards the end of his spring European tour with the new album ‘i/o’ expected later this year after its lead track Panopticom was unveiled back in January.
“The first song is based on an idea I have been working on to initiate the creation of an infinitely expandable accessible data globe: The Panopticom,” Gabriel said.
“We are beginning to connect a like-minded group of people who might be able to bring this to life, to allow the world to see itself better and understand more of what’s really going on.”
Some of what I’m writing about this time is the idea that we seem incredibly capable of destroying the planet that gave us birth and that unless we find ways to reconnect ourselves to nature and to the natural world we are going to lose a lot. A simple way of thinking about where we fit in to all of this is looking up at the sky… and the moon has always drawn me to it.
