Steve ‘H’ Hogarth fronts the band (original lead-singer, “Fish”, having departed in 1988), and brought a new heart and energy to the group when arriving in 1989.
Across a further 12 albums, Hogarth - along with existing member Steve Rothery (guitar), Mark Kelly (keyboards), Pete Trewavas (bass) and Ian Mosley (drums) - reinvigorated and constantly redefined Marillion’s sound.
After the release of 1999’s ‘marillion.com’ the band banished the spectre of record company pressure once and for all by launching their own record label (the aptly-named Intact imprint) and freeing themselves up to produce some of the finest music of their career.
Thanks to their much lauded (and much copied) pioneering Internet-based rock n’roll business model, Marillion have developed a unique and intimate relationship with their fans.
