Most of the vocalists in Bucharest are very young and probably not into prog, but who knows... Did you know that Travka disbanded and their awesome vocalist, George Gadei, is now available?

thank you, rivertree. it is more than what we expected. we will post in the next days the rest of the album material, just to give you more "space" to work with.

Smile  turned into this thread a little bit late ... because of the subtitle 'Heavy Prog' Wink

as mentioned before obvious spacey hints here - Pink Floyd as a reference at first
but also art rock elements and jazzy keyboard - nice music ...
our team will validate this ...

Which city are you from? I know there are plenty of vocalists in Bucharest for example (not proggers, though).

thanks, mon ami, for your kind words, unfortunately, good vocals with prog orientation are scarce these days in our city, but we keep on training our voices and also looking/hoping for a new voice, whichever produces faster results.

I like what I hear! Maybe the vocals I like less, but nonetheless I find the final product very accomplished and enjoyable. Please keep us posted!

I agree with Atavachron ( by the way, you are a very agile man Mr Athos) I dig the old time space rock feel!

Hi guys,

we are Echo, based in Bucharest, Romania. Targeting prog rock arena, probably closer to Heavy Prog, our music is influenced by the prog rock of 70-80's yet with rather melodic roots.

started some 20 years ago, as a college band, played only couple of years, later we found ourselves again this time for this new prog project called ECHO. we have been playing in the current line-up for the past 2 years as a hobby and we just finalised our first CD album, named The Dream. the CD is expected to be released in November, as an independent artist album.

also, freshly cooked our web site (http://www.echo-band.ro/), a my space page ( http://www.myspace.com/echobandro ) and a reverbnation post as well.

the current line-up is as follows:

Daniel Ionita, acoustic and electric guitar
Sorin Manolescu, electric guitar and vocals
Laurentiu Popescu, keyboards and vocals
Petru Macarie, bas
Catalin Chivu, drums

we don't know if we are prog enough, we'd love to hear it from you. hope you'll enjoy couple of minutes of our music.

have a nice day,

sorin

PS To my real shame I have only been recently enlighted towards your site, I simply love it. it is a joy to my soul to see so many people still fond of prog. thought gone are those days...keep it up!
