Text from the organizer (http://artmaniafestival.ro/en/project/peter-hammill/):
Peter Hammill was born in London in 1948. His career began as singer and songwriter for Van Der Graaf Generator, the unconventional and highly influential underground group of the seventies.
Peter’s work has always been independent and uncompromising and this is probably why so many other artists have cited him as a major influence. In addition to his “normal” output of twenty-six solo records, he has also written music for ballet, film and television. He continues to tour throughout Europe and many other countries worldwide, both with VdGG and under his own name.
