Cosmosquad Guitarist Jeff Kollman joins the Alan Parsons Live Project

Acclaimed Los Angeles, CA based guitarist Jeff Kollman (Cosmosquad, Chad Smith’s Bombastic Meatbats, ASIA feat. John Payne, Glenn Hughes) will be joining the Alan Parsons Live Project on their upcoming tour of Germany.  Kicking off May 12 at the Kongresshalle in Oldenburg, the 13-city “I Robot & Greatest Hits” tour is a 40th anniversary live celebration of Alan Parsons’ 1977 classic sophomore release, “I Robot”.

"Funny what life throws your way sometimes. The offer to join the Alan Parsons Live Project for this tour came totally out of the blue - only a week ago I had no idea I'd be doing this", states Coleman.

“Alan invited me over to Capitol Studios in Hollywood for a chat and to listen to some music and that was that.  Coincidentally, I'd recorded a couple of Parsons tracks with ASIA when we did "Sirius" / "Eye In The Sky" for the "Recollections (A Tribute To British Prog)" covers album a couple of years ago so it's a trip to now perform these songs live with the man who actually co-wrote them!  I'm really looking forward to these shows and getting back over to Germany.  It's been a while since I last played there with my trioJKB and before that with MSG on the G3 tour.  I'm taking off today for rehearsals in Germany before we hit the stage for the first time on Friday. Cramming songs on the plane over there.... what else is new?!"
