Synopsis

Product Description
Blackfield is the acclaimed collaboration
between Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree)
and Israeli artist Aviv Geffen.
Formed after a meeting in 2000, the partnership
blossomed into a cross-cultural collaboration that
has already spawned two albums (Blackfield and
Blackfield II). They return in March with their third
album, Welcome To My DNA, following a gap of four
years caused by both artists recent hectic schedules.
Porcupine Tree s 2009 release, The Incident, is the band s best selling album to date, and
the band has continued to raise its profile around the world, recently playing sold out gigs at
London s Royal Albert Hall and New York s Radio City Music Hall. However, Porcupine Tree
is just one of Steven s several musical projects, which also include Blackfield, No-Man, and
Bass Communion. Steven is also a Grammy nominated producer and mixer working with the
likes of Opeth, King Crimson, and Yoko Ono. He also co-wrote and sang a song on the recent
UK number one album by Pendulum.
During the gap between albums, Aviv has released his first English language solo album
(produced by Trevor Horn) and has supported U2 and Placebo. The son of esteemed Israeli
poet Yehonatan Geffen and the nephew of Moshe Dayan, Geffen is Israel s leading counterculture
rock musician. A huge star in his native country, his
records have been greeted with critical adulation, earning him a
string of gold albums. Aviv has worked with various artists, including
Brett Anderson (Suede), Mercury Rev and Belle and Sebastian,
throughout his career but it has been his partnership with Steven
that has proved the most fertile, and both artists have been keen to
return to their work with Blackfield.
