Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – 25 January 2011 – Traces is a journey through loss, growing up and getting older. Letting things go and learning how to move on. Asking questions that don't have immutable answers, telling stories that don't necessarily have happy endings. Coming to terms with things you can't change or control. Mood music, not for elevators. Understanding that being alive sometimes means hurting, but somehow uplifting rather than morose.

The influences on this textured sound are quite diverse; a broad spectrum from early 70s to latest technology. Woven deep into the layered fabric of the songs are echoes of Pink Floyd, Marillion, Porcupine Tree and even Camel. Make no mistake, it is an album, not a collection of singles; though each song could stand alone, it deserves to be played in the appropriate sequence.

The band had this to say: "We are thrilled and excited to be working with Shawn and Prog Rock Records; an encouraging welcome for an album which has been a real triumph in the face of logistical nightmares. We look forward to a rewarding friendship and an interesting future.".

"Recently I met up with my friend DJ Tony for lunch and to talk prog, he started gushing about this band I’d never heard of, so I asked him to send me the URL for the band so I could check them out and I’m glad I did. Really talented band and nice guys, we’re please to be working with them", said Shawn Gordon, President of ProgRock Records.
