Best known for his singles “Year of the Cat,” “Nostradamus,” and “Time Passages,” Scottish singer-songwriter Al Stewart has enjoyed a remarkably prolific career spanning 50 years.

From his orchestral folk debut in 1967 through his popular historical folk rock albums of the 70’s to his more recent duo outings with guitarist Dave Nachmanoff, Stewart has proved to be an artist of impressive longevity.

Having gained a devout cult following with his epic, progressive brand of folk rock, Stewart now tours the world, often with his musical partner Dave Nachmanoff, reinterpreting the songs from his extensive catalog.

He has released 22 records and played alongside a long list of musical giants including Alan Parsons, Jimmy Page, Richard Thompson, Rick Wakeman, Tori Amos and former Wings lead-guitarist Laurence Juber.

“[Al Stewart] doesn't sound quite like anyone else, and has achieved his greatest success with songs that are uniquely his and impossible to mistake.”- All Music Guide
