Selling England by the Pound - 50th anniversary

About this show

Acclaimed by over a million spectators worldwide, in prestigious venues such as London's Royal Albert Hall and Paris' Olympia, The Musical Box has once again chosen Trois-Rivières' Amphithéâtre Cogeco to present its brand new show on May 24.

50 years ago, Genesis made rock history with the release of their fifth album, Selling England by the Pound. This legendary opus, with iconic tracks such as I Know What I Like, Firth of Fifth and The Cinema Show, redefined the codes of rock music and continues to inspire generations of artists and fans.

Internationally acclaimed for its impressive ability to recreate Genesis concerts with striking accuracy, The Musical Box has received praise from Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins themselves:

“TMB recreates very faithfully what Genesis did. I saw them in Bristol with my children so they could discover what their father was doing at the time.” - Peter Gabriel

“It's not a tribute band, they've taken a period and faithfully recreated it, like a theatrical production would.” - Phil Collins
