These new live performances will see them focus on the extraordinary interplay between Rod's fiery lead lines and Gab's phenomenal rhythmic battery; with the fresh addition of Alex Wilson on piano.
Having worked with Alex on the arrangements and recording of their latest album 'Area 52' which was recorded in Havana with a thirteen piece Cuban orchestra.
