Soft Machine are one of the greatest avant/jazz rock bands of all time. Emerging from the famous Canterbury scene along with contemporaries Caravan, Gong and Kevin Ayres, they were heralded as being at the forefront of the burgeoning underground psychedelic scene.Contemporaries of Pink Floyd and touring with Jimi Hendrix on American tours gained them an ever increasing fanbase enthralled by their incredible musicianship and innovative improvisational style.
They have continued to tour worldwide ever since and as well as the legendary founders, Robert Wyatt, Mike Ratledge and Kevin Ayres, the band has featured a plethora of outstanding musicians including Jack Bruce, Allan Holdsworth, Elton Dean and Hugh Hopper.
While the line up of Soft Machine may have changed since the heady days of the 60’s and 70’s, the current long term stalwarts John Etheridge (guitars) and Theo Travis (saxophones) together with Fred Baker (bass) and Asaf Sirkis (drums), are considered to be their best ever.
Recent albums “Hidden Details ” and their “Live in Los Angeles ” marking their 50th Anniversary World Tour, topped both Radio and Amazon Jazz/Fusion charts.
