Former Focus guitarist Jan Akkerman has announced that he will release his latest solo album, My Focus - Live Under The Rainbow through Artone/Music Theories Recordings on December 12.
A live album, My Focus - Live Under The Rainbow was recorded during Akkemran's February tour which saw him and his band playing Bush Hall (London) which I was at, The Fire Station (Sunderland), Philharmonic Hall (Liverpool), Oran Mor (Glasgow), The Met (Bury), The Stables (Wavendon) and The Apex (Bury St. Edmunds), and features some of Focus' classic tunes.
"Live audiences give you the tension and responsibility to be creative, for me, that's the challenge I like," he says. "It's my love to play for people all around the world. I play these songs because my soul and heart are in there. It's a God given talent I have, which makes me feel proud of myself!"
