Soundrise biography
The group started as a cover band in June 2003. Through the course of the years the band changed lineup many times. The only two members that persisted are guitarist Dario CALANDRA and singer Walter BOSELLO.

The band as it is known today started in the beginning of 2008, with the inclusion of drummer Massimo MALABOTTA and the group's choice to dedicate itself completely to its own music. Driven by Walter's creativity, this change of course brought the band to release in September 2012 ''Timelapse'': its first self-produced album.

In early 2012 keyboard player Stefano ALESSANDRINI, an experienced musician who had already recorded two albums with other groups - joined the band.

In late 2012 Giorgio PIEROBON completes the formation joining as bass guitar player.

Soundrise is:
Walter BOSELLO - vocals
Dario CALANDRA - guitar
Massimo MALABOTTA - drums & percussions
Stefano ALESSANDRINI - keyboards
Giorgio PIEROBON - bass guitar

This Italian band started as a covers group back in 2003, but only guitarist Dario Calandra and singer Walter Bosello are still there from those early days, with the line-up changing a few times over the years. They released their debut (and so far only) album themselves in 2012, and again here is a band that only came to my attention when they were suggested to the Crossover team at PA for evaluation. When one looks at their site, and how they promote themselves, it is obvious that it is being undertaken at a very professional level so the question remaims as to how on earth they can get the publicity that they deserve as yet again here is a very fine album indeed from a band that most people will have never heard of.

This is progressive rock that is also bringing in elements of AOR and melodic rock with neo and other genres, resulting in a crossover which is truly that, with pop tendencies and feelings but also plenty of hard rock and balls. This is one of those bands who haven't forgotten that the second word of the definition 'prog rock' is "Rock"! I enjoyed this immensely from the first note to the last, with great vocals and harmonies and hooks that are so big that one could hang a coat and hat on them and know that they would stay there.

It is a fun album, nothing self-indulgent or navel gazing here. If that is what you are looking for then move along, but if you want progressive rock that makes the listener smile from start to finish then this is it. www.soundrise.net
