Roxy Music at Sonar 2010

The English group Roxy Music will be performing in Barcelona during the Sonar 2010 Festival. The group formed in 1971 by art school graduate Bryan Ferry, the group's vocalist and chief songwriter, Phil Manzanera on the guitars, Andy Mackay playing saxophone and oboe, Paul Thompson on the drums and percussion and Brian Eno with the synthesizer and "treatments" attained popular and critical success in the UK and Europe during the 1970s and early 1980s. In 1983 Ferry dissolved the band and they devoted themselves to their solo careers.
In 2001 Ferry, Manzanera, Mackay, and Thompson reunited to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band and toured extensively for 2 years. Since then they have given several concerts and toured also in Europe to places they had never visited before. The Barcelona Sonar concert will be the only concert in Spain and it will happen nearly after three decades of their last show in Barcelona.
