A former core member of Porcupine Tree, Richard Barbieri played keyboards on all the band’s albums since 1993 as well as releasing two striking solo albums: Things Buried and Stranger Inside. Prior to this, it was in the new-wave pioneers Japan that he originally came to prominence, helping to create the ground-breaking synthesiser sound that defined the band and influenced the likes of The Human League, Duran Duran, Gary Numan, Talk Talk and a whole raft of artists to follow. Together, the band record five studio albums culminating in the groundbreaking Tin Drum, which stayed in the UK Albums Chart for a year.

His ear for composing unique soundscapes and synth textures recently led to collaborations with other talented composers, such as Steve Hogarth (Marillion) Steve Jansen & Mick Karn (Japan) and Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree).

In 2017, Barbieri releases his most sonically expansive work to date. "Planets & Persona" is his third solo album, but the first to feature such a wide pallet of instrumentation. Vintage analogue synthesisers combine with acoustic performances and jazz elements, including some stark and memorable improvisations from a personally hand-picked group of musicians. Twisted voices are always present, though not in a language we can recognise.

Recorded across Europe in studios in London, Italy and Sweden, Barbieri has succeeded in creating his most ambitious solo release with a central theme of duality that runs through the album.

Got night a manifold Thunder in the clouds and bountiful, so I am told; The sky is open Give eyes to the many stars And I do I do I know of the lion and the claw, Right here is all I ever need to make me think of you Pearly hot ice, Sky lilac without you Soon my flickering light Will be looking for you Call me up, Call me up With all his might he fell Thunder in the clouds, he watched, awake And I feel that, you know it’s true You know I’m up for the might of you Like the melancholy card You fill me up with light and love You know I’m crazy, but it’s true You know I’m up for the might of you Only untold, Only untold Pearly hot ice, Sky lilac without you Soon my flickering light Will be looking for you
