The O2

indigO2 are proud to present Return To Forever, The Neville Brothers, Macy Gray and The Stylistics as part of the indigO2 Jazz & Blues Series - an ongoing promotion beginning in July 2008 which will see appearances from global superstars, legendary artists and some of the most respected figures from the contemporary music world.

25 years since their last live dates, the legendary jazz-rock fusion supergroup Return To Forever have reformed and will play indigO2 on 21 July. The multiple Grammy Award winning American jazz pianist / keyboardist and composer, Chick Corea, bassist Stanley Clarke, guitarist Al di Meola and drummer Lenny White will start an extensive tour of North America and Europe in May. Chick Corea's jazz-rock fusion band was one of the most influential bands of the 1970's, taking jazz in a new direction and drawing in music fans who normally listened to rock.

Audiences will be able to step back in time and absorb some of the most caustic and exploratory sounds from the group's extensive back catalogue which includes 1974's Where Have I Known You Before (di Meola's debut), 1975's Grammy-winning No Mystery and 1976's studio finale Romantic Warrior. "It's been a long time coming," says founder Chick Corea, "and I think it's going to be a blast! We plan to take the songs from the albums we made in the '70s and just play them like they've never been played before."

A special Return To Forever anthology featuring re-mixed and re-mastered tracks from the classic albums Hymn Of The Seventh Galaxy, Where Have I Known You Before, No Mystery and Romantic Warrior will be released to coincide with the tour.
