Deep Purple

Deep Purple, the British rock band, play a concert at the Eventim Apollo in London. The evening is a rock concert by a group counted among the pioneers of hard rock.

Deep Purple are a British rock band and one of the founding names of hard rock. Their best-known song is 'Smoke on the Water', and their live album 'Made in Japan'is among the records most often associated with the group. Their music combines heavy guitar riffs with organ and a strong emphasis on instrumental playing, a sound that influenced many later rock acts.

For a concert by Deep Purple, the programme draws on the band's long catalogue, with 'Smoke on the Water'and other classics from their hard rock repertoire. Audiences who know the group's recordings will recognise much of the material, while those new to the band can hear the riffs and instrumental interplay that defined their sound.

The Eventim Apollo is a concert and show venue in London, and the evening suits listeners interested in classic British rock and the hard rock lineage that Deep Purple helped shape.
