Fluctus Quadratum biography

FLUCTUS QUADRATUM is an English keyboard-driven progressive rock band started by a father-son duo, both being ardent followers of progressive music, in 2019 during the Covid pandemic. Jopheus BURTONSHAW (son), a 14-year-old self-taught keyboardist, composer, and producer - doing just about everything but drums and vocals - produced the music for their first FQ track, Convergence. His father, Rick BURTONSHAW, drummer, has his own history in the industry, having drummed for bands such as CRY WOLF, TRICKS UPON TRAVELLERS (T.U.T.), and PRE-MED. Curtis ADAMCZYK joined the two on vocals.

The three-piece, with a string of guitarists, have performed at numerous fantastic festivals to date.

The band launched their initial offering, an EP titled "The First Wave", in November 2022, and subsequently their debut album "Laplacian", which is released in February 2025. The music is symphonic melodic prog rock with influences from PINK FLOYD, MARILLION, STEVEN WILSON, and ELP.
