CD/DVD Releases: Cyclone Records to Release Album by Where's The Nine Feat Barry Connors

Posted on Friday, October 03 @ 07:00:00 UTC by nightowl

Cyclone Records has signed Where's The Nine to release their debut album internationally.

Musicians often take the path of commercial viability to reach the largest audience and to ensure their longevity but often sacrifice the passion that drove them to music in the first place. Barry Connors, the percussive force behind such bands as Coney Hatch, Lee Aaron and Toronto has teamed up with virtuoso Dean Watson to present a phenomenal, instrumental progressive mix that finds and nurtures a passion that answers to no one.

Where's The Nine will be releasing their debut CD, Desensitized To Insanity, on 1 October 2008. With a diverse mix of jazz, rock, fusion and progressive elements that hints of such greats as Yes, UK, Rush, Triumvirat, FM, this music comes to life with a character all its own. This is not merely a collection of songs, it is a story, a journey that must be travelled time and again to fully appreciate all its twists and turns.



Keith Fraser says "many of the mainstay elements of Barry Connors' and Dean Watson's playing that made them fantastic musicians in the first place are still present; the blinding speed, the driving aggression, the relentless intensity, the unending contrapuntal phrasing, the constantly shifting underpinnings, and the seamless continuity. The range of composition is very eclectic and slick in compositional scope.?

All keyboards and guitars were recorded at 'The Chalet by the Lake' in Rosseau, Ontario, and all drums were recorded at 'The Dungeon' in Cambridge, Ontario.

Track Listing:

1. A Rather Odd Tribute
2. Mood Swings
3. Half Of Eighteen
4. Through The Looking Glass
5. Two Days Left
6. Lethargic Waltz
7. She's Furious
8. The Camera Ear
9. ???

Members:

Barry Connors: Drums, cymbals, gongs, percussion, anything he can hit
