Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Deep End was a short-lived supergroup founded by guitarist Pete Townshend of the Who and featuring David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.[1] The group also included drummer Simon Phillips, bassist Chucho Merchan, percussionist Jody Linscott, keyboardist John 'Rabbit' Bundrick, harmonica player Peter Hope Evans, vocalists Billy Nicholls, Cleveland Watkiss, Chyna, and a brass ensemble called the Kick Horns.[1][2]

Performance history

In 1985, the group performed two concerts for the Double O charity at London's Brixton Academy (a third was cancelled due to poor ticket sales).[3] The concerts were later released as the albums Deep End Live! (1986) and Live: Brixton Academy '85 (2004).[1] The band also performed a concert at the MIDEM trade fair in France and appeared on The Tube.[3] Townshend's daughter Emma performed as a guest vocalist at the London concerts.[3]

Many of the same musicians and vocalists also appeared with Townshend for later tours and performances and also with the Who for selected engagements.[4][5]

In August 2016, it was announced that a Deep End appearance on the German television show Rockpalast from 1986 would be released on CD and DVD.[6]
