EPHEMERAL SUN to play PROGDAY 2012!

"The Verdict: There were many excellent albums released in 2010, but [Harvest Aorta] was the only true masterpiece."
- Starhammer, PROGARCHIVES.

Started as a project featuring ex-RAIN FELL WITHIN members JOHN BATTEMA (keyboards) and CHARLES GORE (bass), EPHEMERAL SUN began life as a vocal band with an atmospheric and experimental approach to prog-metal. However, with the release of their second album, Harvest Aorta, the band abandoned vocals and found their musical identity in a special captivating brand of progressive rock combining influences from symphonic, metal, ambient, electronica and fusion, presented with a strong, almost cinematic vision. Compared to bands like ANEKDOTEN, PORCUPINE TREE, DREAM THEATER, PINK FLOYD, CAMEL and FINCH, but really sounding like none of them, EPHEMERAL SUN has continued the pursuit of their unique sound.

EPHEMERAL SUN will join Accordo Dei Contrari (Italy), Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic (US) and Karcius (Canada) at ProgDay 2012, the 18th edition of the longest running progressive rock festival in the world. ProgDay 2012 will take place on Saturday, September 1st, and Sunday, September 2nd, at Storybook Farm in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
