'Trusties: Human Wheel' - mahtiprogen kuningasteke « Result #2 on Jun 5, 2009, 6:22pm »
Modernia progea soittava oululainen Trusties julkaisee kolmannen CD:nsä 'Human Wheel' 6.6.2009. Levy tarjoaa 70-minuuttisen matkan ihmisyyden ytimeen, ja tämä ei ole sitten mikään huviretki. Yksilön rooli nähdään koe-henkilönä testissä tehtävänään juosta ja pitää pyörä pyörimässä, sekä ihailla järjestelmän suuria saavutuksia ja luomuksia. Vapaudesta saa tietenkin haaveilla.
Musiikillisesti levyä sävyttää kitara-vetoinen tekstuuri yhdistettynä luonnollisen monimutkaisiin rytmeihin ja tiiviiseen metalli-pitoiseen ilmaisuun. Kuultavissa on laaja kirjo vaikutteita eri tyylisuunnista kuitenkin luontevasti paketoituna. Nykyään viisi-henkinen bändi saatetaan jopa nähdä esiintymässä jossain päin Suomea vielä tänä vuonna.

New CD w/ Adrian Belew, Nick D'Virgilio, Others « Result #9 on Sept 3, 2008, 10:25pm »
Hello Progressive Rock Fans,
I'd like to introduce myself and tell everyone about a special project of mine that was recently completed. My name is Chris G and I am a drummer. I've performed and/or recorded with some players in progressive rock circles including Spock's Beard, Nick D'Virgilio, Mike Keneally, and Shawn "Yogi" Farley.
Four years ago, my older brother Andrew passed away at age 40. We had grown up playing and creating music together, stoking each other's rock star dreams. Andrew left behind a box of four-track demos that he'd painstakingly put together over many, many years. I decided to take some of my favorite songs out of that box, get the best musicians I could find, and make the songs into a "proper album." This was in late 2004 that I started the project.
The new CD, entilted Reflections - An Act Of Glass, is now complete. Here are the musicians that are featured on the album:
Adrian Belew: guitar, vocals Bryan Beller: bass Nick D'Virgilio: vocals Shawn Farley: bass, guitars Chris G: drums, keyboards, percussion Randy George: bass, keyboards Andrew Gorczyca: vocals Wil Henderson: vocals Phil Keaggy: guitars Mike Keneally: guitars Ted Leonard: vocals Dave Meros: bass Rich Mouser: guitar Rick Musallam: guitars Ryo Okumoto: keyboards Billy Oskay: violins Greg Strickland: bass Marc Ziegenhagen: keyboards
We have a MySpace profile up right now, with four of the eight tracks listenable AND downloadable. The overall goal of this effort is to get Andrew's music heard, and hopefully into the hands of progressive rock fans everywhere. Please check out our MySpace page and listen to the music and learn more about the story.
