Roger Waters
Roger Waters co-founded Pink Floyd in the mid-1960s. Under his guidance as lyricist and principal composer, the group made a series of best-selling albums including The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Wall. Waters conceived The Wall as an album, a show, and a film, and it achieved huge success.
In 1985 Waters left Pink Floyd to pursue a solo career. There followed albums, “The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking,” “Radio Kaos,” and “Amused to Death.”
Twelve years later, Waters took to the road with his “In The Flesh Tour”, culminating in the release of a live album and DVD.
In late 2009, he began to contemplate a new staging of “The Wall”. “The Wall Live” played a total of 219 dates to 41.1 million people worldwide from 2010-2013 and was the most successful tour ever by a solo artist.
