Knifeworld have been confirmed for Cruise To The Edge 2018.
They’ll join Yes, Marillion, Gong, Anathema, Haken, Saga, Martin Barre, Glass Hammer, Lifesigns and more on the cruise, which sets sail from Tampa to Belize and Costa Maya from February 3-8 next year.
The trip will also be the London outfit’s first visit to the US – and it’s something that mainman Kavus Torabi is looking forward to.
He says: “Ahoy there. This will be the first real opportunity for our US fans to see Knifeworld live. We will be performing two full electric sets and an acoustic one.
“Over the three performances, we will be plunging into the deep, reedy waters of our four albums and making seaworthy a few rarely heard gems. I’ll also be performing with Gong, so if the cut of my jib doesn’t resonate with you in the correct fashion, you will have plenty of sunbathing time.”
He adds: “After one of the performances, at least two members of Knifeworld will be walking the plank in real life. We hope you can join us for this, at least.”
