Who’s that cherubic lad, beaming out from the cover of a 9 penny knitting pattern?
Meet young Philip Collins – a boy born with two distinct paths laid out before him. Follow his dad into the world of office work and suburban domesticity? Or listen to that voice that tells him to climb onto stage, any stage, and perform?
In episode one of Eras: Phil Collins – Zoe follows Phil as he receives his first toy drum, age three, and discovers a lifelong obsession. One that will ultimately lead him to his destiny, as he stumbles into an audition with a little-known prog rock group called Genesis.
