Led by lead vocalist, flautist and acoustic guitarist Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull have influenced generations of rockers throughout their long and fruitful career. The eccentric band from Luton is considered one of the greatest rock bands of all time with their diverse style that encompasses blues and hard rock. Their music is heightened by elaborate arrangements and Anderson’s masterful flute-playing.
In this single appearance, Jethro Tull will revisit the music from their long career, with half a century of musical flashbacks, in an evening that is bound to be unforgettable.
