Tugs (Italy) for Symphonic Prog - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Tugs - Europa Minor 2013

A good Symphonic Progressive Rock

Tugs were founded in 1978 and brought on their mix of rock theatre and progressive principles coherence even during the difficult decade of the '80s; after a long break, they have reunited and finally released their first LP. "Europa Minor" is the soundtrack of an ambitious, personal and exciting rock opera based on a 'humanistic' and 'other' vision of Europe. It's a passionate and cultured work that tells about some important historical events in Europe, from wars to reconstructions, from tragedy to hope, from blood to poetry. Tugs have waited for the right moment to complete their project, taking back to life songs that were originally written years ago, thanks to an organic of ten elements, a true 'little rock orchestra' characterized by the storytelling voice of Pietro Contorno and the fine playing of keyboardist Marco Susini. Tugs recall the great progressive tradition - the fairy and romantic one by Genesis as well as the Mediterranean one of PFM and Le Orme

	No need to apologise. A member of the RPI Team posted the suggestion directly to the team thread in the Collaborator Zone, therefore Tugs will not show up in searches in this part of the forum. Other members will now be aware of the band, so thank you for posting. Oh, and a warm welcome to ProgArchives.
