Flower Kings: Recorded in vintage studio

Prog legends Flower Kings will release their brand new studio double-album Waiting For Miracles on November 8th, 2019. The album is comprised of 15 new tracks, recorded over the summer at RMV Studio in Stockholm, Sweden a vintage studio space owned by ABBA star Benny Andersson.

Band leader Roine Stolt comments: «We have gone back to the joyful and playful style that made the band famous in the late 90’s. So here more is always more! At time the lyrics have a bit of a serious concern about the state of our world, but overall the theme is full of joy and color».

The band, currently comprised of Roine Stolt, Jonas Reingold, Hasse Fröberg, Zach Kamins & Mirko DeMaio (the most recent live line-up), have crafted an adventurous collection of pure prog-rock. Expect boat-loads of vintage keyboards, odd time signatures and long guitar solos – with elements of pop, symphonic and cinematic music.

The Flower Kings started as an outlet for guitarist/singer/composer Roine Stolt in 1994, a time when prog-rock wasn’t mere history, nor a dirty word. The band quickly gained momentum and was one of a handful of bands helping to revive the progressive rock scene worldwide. Stolt has since collaborated with a host of legendary musicians across various projects, including his acclaimed 2015 album with Yes-legend Jon Anderson, progressive-rock super group Transatlantic alongside Neal Morse, Mike Portnoy & Pete Trewavas, and a year as bass player with Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett. The Flower Kings however, has always felt like home for Stolt and the other band veterans Jonas Reingold & Hasse Fröberg. From Midsommer Progfestival,
