RoSfest Announces The Flower Kings Sunday Night Headliner
PPRC MUSIC are proud to announce highly popular Swedish progressive rock group "The Flower Kings" as headliners for the final day of ROSfest 2008. The band, at first put together to be Roine Stolt's backing band while he was promoting his solo album "The Flower King" in 1993, evolved into a band project after that tour. In the 13 years following the end of that tour, The Flower Kings has established themselves as a household name in the progressive rock scene, being one of few bands pursuing this musical style today that have a wide commercial appeal. The Flower Kings are one of the most prolific progressive bands, releasing 10 studio albums, three live albums, and numerous solo and fan club albums over their history.  They have played numerous festivals over the years, including CalProg in 2005, Symforce in Holland earlier this year and Prog in the Park in 2006.  As of today The Flower Kings are Roine Stolt (guitars, vocals), Tomas Bodin (keyboards), Hasse Fröberg (guitar, vocals) and Jonas Reingold (bass). The band is currently without a regular drummer. They are now out of the studio and just released their latest album, "The Sum Of No Evil", at the end of September and will be featuring tracks from this album, as well as their previous hits and they are now ready to come stateside at RoSfest 2008.
