AUGUST

"August" marks the debut release for this Canadian keyboard talent, delivering some real sweet captivating symphonic prog. BAIRD is a highly skilled multi instrumentalist who plays a very mature and sophisticated music through and through. "August" opens with a highly memorable symphonic prelude which is richly and delicately permeated with acoustic guitar, flute and lush keyboards. Vocals are handled by Susan Fraser who brings a rich fullness to Barid's music. "August" is actually very atmospheric and would make the perfect addition to your Lava Lamp and jade plant. "August"'s instrumental inventory includes acoustic piano, synths, classical guitar, steelstring guitar, penny whistle, recorder, trumpet, drums and percussion. Lovers of symphonic electronic progressive rock will deeply love this album which blends elements of VANGELIS, RICK WAKEMAN, TANGERINE DREAM, Mike OLDFIELD and CODA. "August" is beautiful music that must be heard to be really appreciated...
