Heading on an East Coast adventure through Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, with shows at Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre, South Morang, Bunjil Place, Narre Warren, the glorious Melbourne Recital Centre and Riverlinks Eastbank in Shepparton, Pink Floyd’s Evolution takes audiences on an auditory journey of the music pioneers catalogue.

Intersecting the kaleidoscopic arrangements of the British progressive rock band, the concert will cover the 23-minute compilation album Echoes, the acclaimed 1973 masterpiece The Dark Side Of The Moon and the Syd Barrett tribute nine-part piece ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ as performed by a deeply talented collective.

Spearheading the project is music director James Ryan. Ryan has an impressive performance resume, playing with greats Ross Wilson, Vanessa Amorosi, Men at Work and Russell Morris. He will be on guitars for the Pink Floyd’s Evolution. Roger Mason of Models, Icehouse, Gary Newman and Wall of Voodoo fame, will be offering the electronic elements. Kit Riley of The Badloves and Ross Wilson contribution will be on bass duty and Haydn Meggitt will take Nick Mason’s seat in the drums and percussion seat. Melbourne Ska ORchestra and John Butler Trio performer Pete Mitchell will be taking on the saxophone and guitar. The vocal performance will be shared by powerhouse performers Olivia Nathan (Vanessa Amorosi, Katie Cole, Tommy Rando) and Susie Goble (Miley Cyrus, U2, Icehouse).
