about

Dutch symphonic rock band Kingfisher Sky release their new EP Rise in June 2021!
Four songs about hope, love, nuance and unconditional respect for one another, or lack thereof.
With a vivacious, symphonic and sometimes folky sound, this release features many aspects of the band’s diverse style.

Rise Up, the symphonic first song, is about hope, consolation and revival.
Rain on your Parade is a folky song about how mankind needs the Earth to exist, but the Earth does not need mankind.
The Grey Fields, about someone who finds herself in a strange world and tries to fight her way back to her loved ones, has a cinematic and dramatic sound.
Fool’s Anthem is a song about polarisation and intolerance caused by fear and ignorance.

Beautiful album that has both incredible musicality and technical ability. Marjana and Gleb are easily my favourite prog duo who never fail to deliver masterpiece after another. And Lighthouse is no exception. The collabs on this album are just absolute class, too. Check them out! jazzbedamned

The sibling in spirit to Zopp's Dominion, at least from my point of view: It, too, has been on the wishlist far too long and I'm more than glad that I finally bought this. And also a cornucopia of good things prog, past and present! Strictly musically speaking this is a little harder hitting affair than Dominion, though. Carsten Pieper
