There is a new The Flower Kings' side project called Barracuda Triangle that released their debut in 2014.  This might fit the bill.

Try a band called Yak....they only have one album currently but I'm a fan and wish they would release another new one. Keyboard dominated with no guitar per se. Mellow at times like TD but also heavier like ELP at times.

 
I think they have a song or two on you tube.

footnote - oops just read recent bands - well 70's is recent for some of us..you had to be there man..
 
Anyway try Elephant 9, a recent group, jazz, fuzz, thunderous bass, in plac3es like The Nice on steriods. a keyboard led trio.

Thanks, I'll look into Elephant 9. Egg were a very interesting band. My favorite song of theirs is "A Visit to Newport Hospital". They should have gotten more recognition.

I grew up listening to ELP and early Soft Machine, and I have been wondering what other prog bands use the same keys-bass-drums format as those groups? I enjoy guitar but I would like to hear more of what the keyboard trio has to offer. Can anyone recommend some more recent bands, from within the past 20 years or so? Links would be helpful Wink Thanks!
