Current Genesis members are Phil Collins (drums and vocals), Mike Rutherford (bass and guitars) and Tony Banks (keyboards). Before 1976 the band was lead by Peter Gabriel (vocals, lyrics, flute, oboe, tambourine). The initial personnel has included Anthony Phillips (guitars) and Chris Stewart (drums and percussion). After Phillips left, Mick Barnard stood for a year and replacing Mick Barnard Steve Hackett did the main guitar work in 1971–1977, while Collins replaced John Mayhew (who played with the band after Stewart and John Silver left). Gabriel left in 1975 and Hackett followed in 1977, leaving Genesis an ultimate trio, joined by touring musicians (including Chester Thompson and Daryl Stuermer. Vocally lead by Collins they have enjoyed successful touring and music production. Still active in 90s, they've once again found themselves at a turning point when Phil departed. Michael and Tony, trying to inject some fresh blood, chose Ray Wilson as their vocalist, only to stop recording and touring in less than two years. Since then the band has done many interviews, its members gathered in a studio or separately and toured in 2007, contributed to compiling their archives, currently planning the Last Domino? Tour.

The band's catalogue contains 15 studio albums, six live albums, some compilation albums and some box sets. With at least 40 official singles, they have enjoyed chart success of "Follow You Follow Me", "Turn It On Again", "No Reply at All", "Paperlate", "Mama", "That's All", "Invisible Touch", "Throwing It All Away", "No Son of Mine" and "I Can't Dance".
