(Eclectic prog) Bill in the Tea - Big Tree - 2013, MP3, 320 kbps

We met each other in the summer of 2010, Dario Anastasio, Vittorio Asero and I [Giorgio Rosalio];. The first purpose was to start a prog band because of our musical influences, which were quite similar and focused on the 70s prog music. So we met Bruno Alessi and Andrea Antonuzzo and started playing together. You can listen our first composition, which name is First (Asleep), by checking our EP. The EP was published in January 2012, and is characterized, at least in our opinion, by a certain kind of sound that is close to our idea of progressive music, with a little smell of jazz and classical music.
The next step was to create a complete album, so we tried to mix our influences and our ideas in order to find a sound which would have been our sound and not something that reminds people of Pink Floyd, King Crimson, or Yes. The result was Big Tree, published in July 2013. It's completely different from the EP in terms of atmospheres and feelings, no more flutes and pads, less Hammond and more synth, stronger distortions...plus a violin! It sounds more modern, as we have been said. The truth is that we have a lot of different influences, from the monsters of prog, to jazz, post rock, math rock, nu jazz. In fact it doesn't sound strange to us that our addition to your site was approved by the post rock team, we are glad to be tagged as post rock, as post rock isn't just Mogwai's style.
Nowadays we are focused on making our music heard as much as possible, we play mainly in Sicily but we are planning a tour trough Italy for summer. Our cd we'll be distributed in a few months in specialized shops all around the world by our (new) label. Right now it can be purchased on our bandcamp (Buying through Bandcamp or ordering directly from us is the same).
