Taking their name from the first book of the Bible, Genesis was led by vocalist [[Peter Gabriel]] for many years; drummer [[Phil Collins]] assumed vocal duties after Gabriel's departure and turned the band's sound in a more pop-oriented direction.

The band had been on hiatus for many years, but Collins, keyboardist [[Tony Banks]], and bassist/guitarist [[Mike Rutherford]] made a comeback tour in the summer of 2007. Originally, the classic lineup of Gabriel, guitarist [[Steve Hackett]], Banks, Rutherford, and Collins were supposed to reform but Gabriel and Hackett declined to participate, although both are open to a later reunion.
