Featured Band: Last Flight To Pluto

Last Flight To Pluto is fronted by Alice Freya, a veteran of the cover circuit in her homeland of South Wales, UK. Herself and drummer Daz Joseph, who some might remember from 90’s prog band EZRA, had had enough of playing vacuous pop to satisfy others.’It’s about time we start playing music that we enjoy, but if we played a Rush cover, half of our crowd would leave!’ Freya said. That sparked an idea in Daz’s head, it felt like the right time to try and get back on the prog scene after years of absence.

It was easy finding the right musicians to play on ‘See You At The End‘ after all, the covers band had played hundreds of gigs together, apart from bass player and Rockfield engineer Jon Con, but Freya and Joseph had always admired his playing and decided he was the right man for the job. 17 year old ‘whizz kid’ guitarist Jack ‘mcGinty’ Parry has been playing since the age of 4, he has a great old school approach to his playing. With some of his influences being: David Gilmour, Graham Headley Williams (Racing Cars) and Alex Lifeson.

‘What on earth is prog?’ asked other vocalist Brett Andrews, who was also in his teens during the album recording. His taste and style of music being R&B, he had a big eye opener in the studio but he kept an open mind and discovered a new love in progressive rock.

With most of the players being under 30, ‘See you at the end’ has a new modern twist on prog but their influences – Rush, Massive Attack, Genesis, King Crimson, Camel and Pink Floyd, really shine throughout their 6 track, hour long album ‘See You At The End’.

Album ‘See You At The End’ is out now.
