This past weekend, Brit Floyd re-launched their 2023 multi-city “50 Years of Dark Side Tour” of North America. Known as The World’s Greatest Pink Floyd Experience, the group will follow this year’s dates with a massive 2024 world tour.
It’s a 90-city tour of North America, plus shows in 45 cities in the UK, and Europe to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s Pulse and The Division Bell albums. More details about the 2024 dates will be announced in the coming weeks.
The fall 2023 “50 Years of Dark Side” tour features over two and a half hours of Pink Floyd music encompassing the band’s iconic career. Brit Floyd’s team have created a show that includes state-of-the-art visuals (lights, lasers, and animation) which are all presented with immersive soundscapes and virtuosic musicianship.
When the tour wraps, the “50 Years of Dark Side” trek will have encompassed more than 108 dates with return stops in many markets, alongside first-ever performances in other markets. “The Dark Side Of The Moon”, released in 1973, is one of the most critically acclaimed albums of all time and includes Pink Floyd’s iconic single ‘Money.’
Formed in 2011, Brit Floyd consists of performances supported by an immense, immaculately curated state-of-the-art production, reverently emulating the stunning soundscapes and visuals of Pink Floyd’s iconic catalog. Brit Floyd is a celebration of authenticity, featuring musicians handpicked by Damian Darlington.
The 2023 touring band includes Darlington on guitars, and vocals and musical director, Ian Cattell on vocals, and bass, Edo Scordo on guitars, and vocals, Matt Riddle on keyboards, synths, Hammond, and vocals, Arran Ahmun on drums, and percussions, Ryan Saranich on saxophone, percussions, guitars, bass, and keyboards, Randy Cooke on drums and percussion, Canadian Idol Winner Eva Avila on lead and backing vocals, Genevieve Little on backing vocals, Jessie Lee Houllier on backing vocals, and Robyn Cage on backing vocals.
Historically, the shows have featured guest appearances from musicians from Pink Floyd‘s studio and road line-ups: bassist/vocalist Guy Pratt joined Brit Floyd onstage at the Echo Arena in Liverpool in 2013 and Pink Floyd saxophonist/guitarist Scott Page performed with the band on numerous occasions, as have Pink Floyd backing vocalists Roberta Freeman and Durga McBroom.
