Magnum Announce “The Next Chapter” — Honouring the Legacy of Tony Clarkin and Celebrating Over 50 Years of Music
British rock legends Magnum are entering an exciting new era as they continue to honour the extraordinary legacy of their late founder, guitarist, and songwriter Tony Clarkin, who sadly passed away last year.
With a remarkable career spanning more than five decades, Magnum have long been celebrated for their melodic power, rich storytelling, and unwavering dedication to their craft. Following Tony’s untimely passing, the band paid tribute to his life and work with a series of special performances titled “The Passage in Time” — a two-hour celebration of some of Tony’s most iconic compositions.
The shows, performed by Bob Catley, Rick Benton, Lee Morris, Dennis Ward, and Brendon Riley (who stepped into Tony’s role on stage with immense pride and respect), were met with overwhelming love and gratitude from fans and the wider rock community. The energy, emotion, and shared sense of remembrance reaffirmed the band’s belief that Tony’s music — and the spirit of Magnum — must continue.
In the wake of these heartfelt tributes, Dionne Clarkin, Tony’s daughter, began exploring over three decades of Magnum’s archives. Her journey uncovered a treasure trove of material — from early drafts and lyric notes that reveal the evolution of some of Magnum’s most beloved songs, to four fully completed, never-before-heard tracks that capture Tony’s creative brilliance in his final years.
This discovery marks the beginning of a new chapter for Magnum — one that celebrates the band’s past while looking boldly to the future.
“The support from fans has been truly overwhelming,” said the band. “Tony’s music has always been at the heart of Magnum, and with Dionne’s dedication and the incredible response from the shows, we know the story isn’t over. This is the next chapter — for Tony, for Magnum, and for everyone who has been part of this journey.”
Magnum are now preparing to share this next chapter with their loyal fans around the world — continuing the band’s legacy of timeless rock and heartfelt storytelling.
