Holding Pattern Lands At ProgDay 2008!
Driven by the guitar virtuosity of TONY SPADA, HOLDING PATTERN's
powerful and energetic prog-fusion first hit the scene in 1981. Their
music recalled the best of the instrumental prog and fusion bands of
the 1970s and they built a loyal following of prog rock fans around
the world during the 1980s. The band split in 1992, but Tony Spada
continued to play and record as a solo artist, sharing the stage with
many progressive rock icons and headlining his own shows. Interest in
Tony's solo career spurred HOLDING PATTERN to reform in 2005. Join
HOLDING PATTERN as they burn up the ProgDay stage with old favorites
and tunes from their new reunion album, "Breaking The Silence."
"...this is a mature and highly original work by seasoned musicians at
the height of their creative powers, and Tony's guitar work...is
second to none. If you enjoy instrumental progressive rock with
beautiful melodies and inventive solos, then this is certainly for
you!" - ZNR
"This is a refreshing instrumental amalgam of sounds that at times
evokes HAPPY THE MAN, THE DREGS, and GENESIS - often within the same
song! Highly recommended." - Ken Golden, The Laser's Edge
