Progressive Rock Artist Dave Kerzner’s New Album “Heart Land Mines Vol. 1” To Be Released October 18th! Featuring members from Sound of Contact, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Jellyfish, Kansas and others! Progressive Rock artist Dave Kerzner, known for co-founding the band Sound of Contact with Phil Collins’ son Simon and as the keyboardist of the band Arc of Life with members of Yes is releasing a new solo album entitled “Heart Land Mines Vol. 1”. It’s an autobiographical concept album about leaving Los Angeles in the 90s after a breakup and driving cross country with a guitar to think, reflect and write songs. The album is Kerzner’s fourth solo effort following up on his previous release “The Traveler”. It features an ensemble cast of musicians including Fernando Perdomo (Echo in the Canyon), Matt Dorsey (Sound of Contact), Durga McBroom (Pink Floyd), Elliott Randall (Steely Dan), Lyle Workman (Jellyfish, Beck), Joe Deninzon (Kansas) and more. “This album was many years in the making,” says Kerzner. “I’ve worked on it on and off since the mid-90s. The stories in the songs are based on true events in my life when I was in my 20’s. Now, 25 years, I’m thrilled to finally present the first volume to be heard publicly!” Dave Kerzner’s “Heart Land Mines Vol. 1” will be released on CD and digital download on his Bandcamp page and other popular album download sites on October 18th. A 6 song EP from the album called “Heart Land Mines: The Eye” is currently streaming on all major platforms. Various versions of the album including a deluxe edition that include a surround sound Blu-Ray can be ordered here: http://sonicelements.bandcamp.com/merch For more information visit http://www.davekerzner.com Press inquiries: Glass Onyon PR, PH: 828-350-8158 (USA), [email protected] |

Very talented guy, he's sort of now become Alan Parsons when Alan was good. Likes to pull together a sizeable 'cast' of musicians for his albums.

Fair enough although Apple's classification is misleading. Not untypical of them though (Per Un Amico is classed as an ep for instance).
As an aside I would mention the In Continuum albums he released. They could also easily have been solo albums but the material was really a continuation of the Sound Of Contact project he had going with Simon Collins. That got shelved partly I suspect because Collins was arrested for drugs possession. The space alien theme is the thing that delineates those albums and could almost be a trilogy with the Sound Of Contact release. Both feature Marco Minnerman quite heavily. He was the drummer on Steven Wilson's Raven and is much admired.
