I suggest to add the band B For Bang, a group founded by classical pianist Katia Labeque, who is one half of the most famous classical piano duo in the world, the Labeque sisters. B For Bang made one album so far, "Across the Universe of Languages", consisting of Beatles covers. now before you go "how boring" I suggest you listen to them first; they did some highly original covers in which they completely deconstructed and rebuilt these songs. just have a listen here:

Against my better judgement (I already spend too much on music), I did take a listen to those two videos. Extremely interesting stuff. I don't know enough to say whether they're prog or not, but they certainly don't seem inappropriate for the site and I did like them.

just bumping this thread with a link to the whole first album of the band, "Across the Universe of Languages":
here the track list: 01) Ouverture 0:29 02) Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite 3:06 03) Interlude 1 1:00 04) Helter Skelter 3:41 05) Golden Slumbers 3:12 06) I Want You (feat. Katell Keineg) 3:59 07) Reminiscence 2:51 08) Happiness Is a Warm Gun (feat. Nadeah) 4:02 09) Julia 4:09 10) Interlude 2 0:23 11) Between Those Rocks 3:29 12) Interlude 3 0:19 13) Blackbird 4:20 14) Come Together 2:47 15) Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds (feat. Meg) 2:39 16) Notes to the Future (feat. Patti Smith) 2:39 17) The Last Man On Earth 6:52 18) One More Song (feat. Daniel Day Lewis) 4:21 most of the tracks float into each other. unfortunately I had to download the tracks one by one and connect them with a software. due to this there is an annoying little pause between any two tracks, even if they would float into each other; try to ignore it. I think they fit into RIO/Avant Edited by BaldJean - February 13 2018 at 15:36 |

and here the other album of B For Bang called Rewires the Beatles:
track list: 1. Tomorrow Never Knows 03:32 2. I Am the Walrus 02:51 3. Girl 03:53 4. While My Guitar Gently Weeps 06:06 5. Something 03:50 6. Glass Onion 03:42 7. Dear Prudence 06:26 8. Because 03:11 9. Get Back 03:12 10. I, Me, Mine 02:13 11. Why Don't We Do It In the Road 03:07 12. When I'm Sixty-Four 02:13 again I had to download the album track by track and connect the tracks with a special software, so there is sometimes an annoying pause for tracks that flow into each other; try to ignore it |
