I Need Prog Artists/Bands

[Mathieu Fiset]

I'm a solo pianist and keyboardist for Manahil my experimental/prog project.

I want to find as much prog artists as I can to plan big shows here in Quebec,Canada, but also in the US.

Listen to my music and you'll know what I want : SMOOTH Prog music, no rock or metal things. A solo pianist/keyboardist/guitarist/whatever is great too !

If you are from the US (and not too far away from Quebec), you can invite us for a show, or more ! As long as the trip don't cost more than the money we'll get at the show...you get the point...musicians are poor !

So I wait for ya ;)

My band Widow's Walk is probably too metal for you, but you should check out another Ottawa band called Transitaural, they sound right up your alley:

[Drusillus]

I'm a solo keyboardist in Bangor, Maine in the United States. If something could be set up i'd interested

[Mathieu Fiset]

Hum that could be possible, If you want to play here i'll book us something in Quebec or montreal, and if you want that we come, I'll need that you book it (just because I can't know every places for shows in the world...hehe).

That would be with Manahil or Adamind headline and you and me as solo artists just before ^^

[sean]

i'd like to put something together, however not that many people around here are into prog, most of them like rap, so i don't know how many would come. so maybe something could work out up there, i'd just have to find some transportation.

[Mathieu Fiset]

I'll try to book something in Montreal in the begining of December with Manahil, me and another pianist, you are invited to join if you can ! Nothing's really confirmed so I'll give some news when it's booked.

[sean]

the beginning of december sounds good. i just have to make sure i have the proper identification and whatnot all set. now, wherever this gig would be, would there be an acoustic piano i could use or would anyone have a synth i could use? i will most likely have to travel by bus or if i travelled by car it would be a car that my gear doesn't fit in.

[Mathieu Fiset]

There will be my piano (digital piano, 88 notes, good feel) for any pianists. I'll get into booking pretty soon ^^

[sean]

okay, then i just have to take care of transportation and making sure i'm cleared to enter the country, which shouldn't be a problem. i'm really excited for this, i've never gotten to play a show so far away from home.
