Renaissance was formed in London, UK, in 1969 by ex-Yardbirds vocalist Keith Relf and drummer Jim McCarty. They blended rock, folk, and classical music to create a unique sound. The band went through several lineup changes before stabilizing in 1973 with vocalist Annie Haslam, guitarist Michael Dunford, keyboardist John Tout, bassist Jon Camp, and drummer Terry Sullivan. They had success throughout the 70s and released their most popular single "Northern Lights" in 1978. After a period of decline in the early 80s, Renaissance disbanded in 1987 but reunited multiple times over the years for albums and tours.

In 2001, original members Haslam, Dunford, Tout, and Sullivan came together again to release a studio album called "Tuscany".

In honor of their 40th anniversary in 2009, Haslam and Dunford reformed Renaissance for a concert tour featuring new members Rave Tesar on keyboards and David J. Keyes on bass. Additional members Tom Brislin on keyboards and Frank Pagano on drums joined later.

The band continued to perform live shows and released live CDs and DVDs from their tours. In 2013 they released their first studio album in twelve years titled "Grandine il Vento", which sadly became Michael

Re-mastered from the original master tapes with an illustrated booklet with a new essay and a reproduction of the original album poster. Recorded in late 1976, the album featured the epic 'Can You Hear Me?' along with the classic tracks 'Midas Man', ' Touching Once (Is So Hard to Keep)' and 'The Sisters'. Because of record company issues, the album was released in January 1977 in the USA, but appeared in the UK and Europe in August 1977. "Novella" was a top 50 hit album in the USA and the band's following in the UK grew steadily.

The impressive set list featured material from "Novella", alongside such classic tracks as 'Carpet of the Sun', 'Mother Russia', 'Can You Understand', 'Running Hard', 'Song of Scheherezade' and 'Ashes Are Burning'.
