The Watch

Musical Group

The Watch is an Italian neo-progressive rock band noted in reviews for singer Simone Rossetti's resemblance to Peter Gabriel. They perform Genesis repertoire live and release original neo-prog material.

Lead singer Simone Rossetti is repeatedly noted for a voice similar to Peter Gabriel. Reviews name Valerio De Vittorio (keyboards), Giorgio Gabriel (guitar), Marco Fabbri (drums) and Andrea Garbellotto (bass). The band performs Genesis material in concert and has recorded albums including 'Planet Earth?'.

Two DeBaser reviews discuss The Watch as an Italian neo-progressive band whose singer Simone Rossetti is often compared to Peter Gabriel. Reviews praise instrumental skill and faithful Genesis reproductions while criticizing originality, certain production/mix choices and some performances. Live shows and the album 'Planet Earth?' are highlighted; opinions remain divided.

For:Fans of Genesis, neo-progressive rock and tribute/cover performances.

 The peculiarity of The Watch would be having a singer (Simone Rossetti) with a voice almost identical to that of Peter Gabriel, making this group a truly unique case in the panorama of Genesis re-presenters.

 They are an Italian neo-prog band that, thanks to the extraordinary (truly) similarity of singer Simone Rossetti's voice to that of Peter Gabriel and an immense passion for the golden era ’71-’77, created this group from the ashes of the previous The Night Watch.
