Progressive rock has had the biggest musical influence on my song writing. If you are unfamiliar with progressive rock as a style, I'm sure you've heard a few mainstream prog rock bands such as Rush, Yes, Dream Theater, and Kansas.
Although it's not always obvious, my lyrics and stories I tell in my songs are told from a Christian worldview. I hope you enjoy!
Your musical influences
Dream Theater, Kansas, Royal Hunt, Rush, Styx, Saga and nu-metal like Creed, Kutless, Skillet and Collective Soul.
What equipment do you use?
Stratocaster, Epiphone Elitist GS, E-mu PK-6 Synth, Yamaha Digital Piano (Clavinova CLP-930), Univox Mini Korg analog synth (circa 1972) and a BR-1180CD Digital Recorder
Hi Tim
We really liked "Luther". Nice guitar sound and melodies, though perhaps the drums need a little attention in the mix? Perhaps you might pop over to our page and listen to a few tracks? If you like instrumentals there are a couple (Dies Irae and Malicious Demon); otherwise "Me shaped box" and "Detroit Station" might appeal to you
Regards
Julian and Martin

I've just listened to "Luther" - absolutely loved it and I will be back to listen to the rest of your catalogue as soon as I get a chance. Kansas, DT, Saga et al have been a major influence on me and it is great to hear stuff from a like-minded soul. It is also great to have another prog-influenced contributor on the BR1180cd group!
All the best

Good stuff! Keep on Rockin'!

Thanks for posting on my page. You've got some great stuff yourself! The melodies are beautiful and have a great Christian message too! I hear some Porcupine Tree in the ballad moments. Keep on proggin' in CR!
