Marcus Taylor and Ben Bell have been collaborating on musical projects
since the late 1990s when they began playing together in a number of
blues and rock bands at the University
of Warwick. These included the rock group ‘Crazy Dogs’ and the aptly
named blues quintet, ‘Cheese Trauma’. While the blues provided a useful
meeting point, the pair explored mutual interests across the musical
spectrum – drawing on progressive rock and jazz fusion while keeping a
close eye on strong songwriting and engaging solo improvisation. Broken
Parachute originally started as a vehicle for Marcus’ new compositions
and Ben’s desire to test his abilities as a lead singer. Separated by
the Atlantic ocean owing to the demands of paid employment, the pair
availed themselves of new technology to aid their transatlantic
collaboration. The resulting album – ↓↓Down is the New Up↑↑ – is the
first showcase product of their creative energies. Homepage http://www.brokenparachute.com/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BrokenParachute/ Bandcamp https://brokenparachute.bandcamp.com/

He's not overdoing it as far as searching first to see if a band has already been suggested though(not this one but another one). ;)

the more this topic will be flooded with bands, the less we are able to be careful ... |

I believe any new band or the band that is missing deserve a chance to be here. Isn't it ProgArchives? I do go through search function on the forum site and search comes up empty.

I know I was rude, but you are suggesting an overwhelming amount of bands. It would be funny if you suggested the same band twice.

How would members would get new content if I don't suggest new or old bands that are missing in a data base? Isn't the whole idea to have as much information on Prog bands? Just saying.
