About Cynity
“Music has always been a vocation for Chris Grundmann. Ever since his childhood days as a piano student, he has heard the call. During his days as ivory-tinkler extraordinaire for German prog metal band Freaks On The Roof, he significantly influenced the outfit’s direction. Equipped with exquisite songwriting skills, remarkable talent as a performer, and a producer’s ear, Chris always succeeds in meshing complex and catchy structures into appealing songs.

Cynity, his solo project, expresses all of that – and much more. The songs are a mixture of Chris’s pop sensibilities and progressive roots that showcase a broad range of talents and variety of styles at the same time. Each of them a distinctive sonic tapestry, they interweave melody, heaviness, and intricate rhythms into an accessible and intriguing whole.”

Making this album took way longer time than expected, all songs were finished by March 2016, but endless problems occurred all the time once the post production started. Besides all problems, it’s been fun experimenting with “new styles”. Released December 19, 2016
