Collins, who has historically provided both drums and vocals, is thought to be unable to play the instrument due to a nerve problem.

Peter Gabriel, one of the group's founding members, will not be taking part.

Collins, guitarist Rutherford and keyboard player Banks made up the band's most successful and long-lasting line-up during the late 70s, 80s and early 90s.

They appeared on the Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on Radio 2 to announce their return.

In January, the trio were spotted together at a New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, sparking rumours of a reunion.

Genesis formed at Charterhouse boarding school in Godalming, Surrey, in 1967.

Collins took over singing with the band when Gabriel left in 1975, before departing for a solo career himself, saying he needed ‘to change direction in my musical life’.
