Synaesthesia (5)

Synaesthesia was a band from United Kingdom. The music is written by a then 20 years old multi-instrumentalist Adam Warne who incorporates influences from acts such as from Frost*, Porcupine Tree and Muse. They have released with Michael Holmes (2) of IQ (7) their first self-titled CD on Giant Electric Pea in 2014. It's at the BRIT School of Performing Arts and Technology that Warne began experimenting with progressive rock. All instruments are played by Warne with the exception of guitars by [a3602706] and Ollie Hannifan. The later live line up includes also Robin Johnson (7) (drums), Peter Episcopo (2) (bass, backing vocals) and Joseph Frevola (guitar). The band debuted as the support of IQ (7) at their 2013 Christmas Bash in De Boerderij, Holland. The music of the band combines the sounds of modern progressive rock with the Synth-driven styles of alternative rock with catchy riffs and plenty of experimentation. In 2015 the band changed its name to Kyros (3), partly due to other bands claiming the Synaesthesia name, but mainly to underline that this was a new beginning.
