HACKETT & ROTHERY The Roaring Waves (2026 Limited Edition CD+Blu-ray Mediabook - Dolby Atmos & 24bit Stereo Mixes - Renowned guitarists Steve Hackett & Steve Rothery are pleased to present their long-awaited collaborative album 'TheRoaring 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 ofthe waves during the stormy weather, Whitby was a very evocative place to live, a very poetic and powerful place to grow up. So, I suppose this record, is a way of expressing some of those memories and emotions about what the sea meant to me." '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. For now, this is a standalone album, with neither guitarist even able to commit time to live dates let alone the thought of making another album together again just yet. So, for now, as the tides rise and recede, faces turn to the empty horizon waiting for one final ship to be brought into land, to finally return home. 'The Roaring Waves' CD & Blu-ray Mediabook features Dolby Atmos mixes by Andy Bradfield and 24bit Stereo Mixes on the Blu-ray, alongside the 7-track CD album.
