Peter Gabriel To Receive 2014 Prog God Award
. The ceremony takes place at the prestigious Underglobe, beneath Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, on Thursday September 11, and the Prog God Award recognizes the innovators of the past 40 years. Those, without whom, the world of music would be a much poorer place - and no one is more deserving of that accolade than Peter Gabriel. Previous winners are Rick Wakeman and Ian Anderson. Jerry Ewing, Editor of Prog Magazine, says: "Few people in the music world really do fulfill the criteria for a Progressive Music Award better than Peter Gabriel. From a groundbreaking eight years with Genesis to a solo career that has now stretched almost 40 years, few artists have striven to push back the creative boundaries, generating a body of work that in its very nature progresses ever onwards. From massive worldwide hits through startling experimentation and pioneering work with world music, as well as his fantastic work outside of music and an astute grasp of technology, it really is an honour to pay tribute to Peter in this way." more on this story Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
