Unified Past are Happy to Confirm New Band Mates to Complete Line-up

Unified Past have confirmed the addition of two new band members to complete line up. Unified Past are a US/Canadian based heavy melodic prog band with seven albums under their belt including the highly acclaimed album Shifting The Equilibrium released in 2015 and the first album to feature vocalist Phil Naro.

Unified Past had been seeking a permanent keyboard player and enlisted long time friend Jason Hanley who performed some live shows in late fall of 2016 and has also recorded a few tracks with the band, however Jason could not commit for a long term tenure with the band so the search continued for a full time keyboard player. According to the band the search is over, they have welcomed Canadian Keyboardist Mike Sues to the band as well as Drummer Roger Banks also a well respected and popular Canadian musician known for his work with the likes of Billy Sheehan, Tony Levin, Alannis Morisette among other talented artists!.

Colin Tench Releases Solo Album

Colin Tench best known for his work with Corvus Stone to releases new album “Hair in a G-String (Unfinished but Sweet)” as a solo album under the name Colin Tench Project

Hair in a G-String (Unfinished but Sweet) is available for pre-order and the albums release date is November 30th

According to Tench
“Hair in a G-String” could be labeled Prog before there was Prog. Split this into the written piece “Hair in a G-String” (about 46 minutes) & “Songs not in G” (About 36 minutes) and you’d have a prog album and a melodic rock album I guess. We didn’t do that. We mixed it up. See it as musical interludes between the main action.
