Band Name: M-OPUS – Symphonic Prog
Here's our band, M-Opus 

www.m-opus.com
Biog: M-OPUS are Jonathan CASEY (keys, vocals) and Colin
SULLIVAN (guitar, vocals), a progressive rock duo from Dublin, Ireland. The duo
have played together in original and cover bands for 15 years, but established
M-OPUS in 2014. 
Under the stage name Arch STANTON, CASEY had previously been
a member of the David CROSS Band (ex-King Crimson). Together with CROSS, they
released two albums, “Closer Than Skin” (http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=7833)
in 2005 and “Alive In The Underworld” (http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=23180)
in 2008. 
Since then, CASEY became a successful composer for
orchestras, with performances all over the U.S., China, Australia, Bulgaria,
France, the U.K. and on TV and film.
CASEY and SULLIVAN started M-OPUS as a platform to perform
and write original music in their favourite style, symphonic rock of the 1970s.
They have a live line-up, which includes Darragh DENNIS (bass) and Mark GRIST
(drums). 
Their first album is “1975 Triptych” on Rude Chord Records,
out on February 2^nd 2015. They plan to release albums that each represent
the sound of a certain year. Their next release will be ‘1978’.

	You guys sure do have a strong Yes flavour. I'm forwarding you to the symphonic guys

	Heard the music and IMHO some sort of Rabin Yes blended with 70's Yes plus a modern sound I like it, and I vote for inclusion.....But we need 3 more votes, will notify the team. Iván Edited by Ivan_Melgar_M - January 29 2015 at 20:58

	A Yes vote from me. Nice to hear something purely symphonic and close to the Yes sound. Beautiful.
