SOFT MACHINE 2027

Soft Machine is one of the greatest UK avant/jazz-rock bands of all time. Their work, from theirearliest performances as a psychedelic band who were contemporaries of, and shared stages with,Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd and the Jimi Hendrix Experience, all the way to being one of Europe's best known 'fusion' groups, has influenced several generations of bands, and continues to be name-checked by today's hip experimentalists. Whilst the line-up of Soft Machine may have changed many times since the heady days of the late1960's, the band's spirit of musical adventure, and the ease with which it freely avoids being pigeonholed and can move from powerful progressive jazz fusion to atmospheric psychedelia to freeimprovised jazz-rock to ambient loop music,
