Solaris is a 'born again' progressive rock band, having formed
in the mid 1970's in the heyday of Yes, Genesis, King Crimson,
Pink Floyd. Gentle Giant and other great bands. It was these
influences that energized the band to both interpret and perform
the great music of these bands and to create symphonic and
melodic original compositions of their own. Through 1981 and a
few personnel changes, the band played in the
Northeast US
to appreciative audiences.
As a result of momentous and opportunistic events,
original band members - Guitarist extraordinaire James
Curran; Keyboard wizard Jim Waterman and
Bass Guitar titan Wayne Speranza were reunited
and rediscovered their passion for progressive rock music and maybe even the
chops and will to play it. The addition of awe-inspiring drummer and
experimental percussionist Chris Ryan brought
more polish and some new ideas. The reunited Solaris is writing fresh new
music, and will be playing your favorite progressive rock tunes, including
their own, at a venue near you. |
