Party: Neal Morse Band (feat. Mike Portnoy) plus special guests: Beardfish

Neal Morse has been at the top of the Progressive Rock Genre for over 20 years now. In his partnership with Drummer Mike Portnoy, the two have built a brand that is no doubt a force to be reckoned with. In the midst of this universe of prog music, Neal Morse has always reserved his solo material for a special line up of stellar musicians. Mike Portnoy and Bassist Randy George have been at the core of Morse’s solo recordings for the past 12 years. Now for the very first time in his solo catalogue Neal is taking the band approach. With the arrival of Keyboardist Bill Hubauer, and Guitarist Eric Gillette, doing a band album seemed the most logical approach. Hubauer and Gillette are both formidable vocalists with strong presence. Both are skilled writers as well. The Grand Experiment is the product of a few studio sessions and a total collaboration between all members and the grand total is greater than the sum of the parts.
Now with “The Neal Morse Band” the guys will be hitting the US, Canada and Europe for a winter tour in 2015. Fans can expect a wealth of new music from the band as well as some fresh deep cuts from the catalogue. The new album should be hitting the streets early February, 2015 although that is an estimated release date. Watch for the forthcoming video for the title track “Grand Experiment” to be released soon.
