Grammy-winning songwriter, producer and engineer Alan Parsons had a hand at creating some of classic rock's most memorable albums, from Abbey Road to Dark Side Of The Moon. But when he wasn't creating collaborative musical magic in the studio, the multi-talented muso was cultivating a cult following thanks to his solo endeavours, releasing twelve mind-bending progressive rock albums between 1974 and 2014.

Soft rock veterans America are back on the road, bringing their popular brand of vocals and acoustic guitar on their latest national tour. Having been inducted into the Vocal Hall of Fame in 2006, the band also have their own star on Hollywood Boulevard, recognizing them as an important contributor to the musical arts. Their 2006 album Here & Now saw the band collaborate with a new generation of artists including Ryan Adams, Ben Kweller, and Jim James among others.
