Darktown is the 14th studio album by English musician Steve Hackett, released in 1999.

On some copies of this reissue, the title was misspelled as "Darktwon" on the sides of the CD case.

Darktown is the last album to feature Julian Colbeck as a keyboardist, on the title track only.

Darktown shows the increasing role that Roger King would play as a part of Hackett's band, as a producer and keyboardist and later as a co-writer.

I decided at the time to express my feelings as honestly as possible without giving into commercial pressures, with the belief that personal inspiration could be most universally potent.
