DIE PERFEKTE PROG-ROCK-JUKEBOX
Die ultimative Prog-Rock-Experience kommt nach Europa! Unter dem Namen ProgJect hat der Drummer Jonathan Mover vor ein paar Jahren eine All-Star-Band gegründet, die alle Old-School-Proggies mit der Zunge schnalzen lässt. Gemeinsam mit Mike Keneally, Ryo Okumoto, Alessandro Del Vecchio und Pete Griffin präsentiert er auf der Bühne ein Set der Superlative mit Songs von Genesis, YES, ELP, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Rush, Gentle Giant und vielen anderen mehr.
Vor fünf Jahren erhielt der Drummer Jonathan Mover (GTR, Marillion, Aretha Franklin, Alice Cooper, Joe Satriani, Mike Oldfield, The Tubes) einen Notfall-Anruf von der Genesis-Tribute Band The Musical Box. Deren Drummer musste kurz vor der US-Tour forfait geben und Mover sprang kurzerhand für ihn ein. „Ich hatte lange nicht mehr so viel Spass auf der Bühne und erinnerte mich an die Zeit, als ich begann Prog-Rock zu spielen“, sagt Mover. „Ich fühlte mich wieder wie fünfzehn und spürte erneut das Feuer, das in mir loderte, als ich zum ersten Mal zu den Drum Sticks griff.“ So reifte in ihm die Idee, Songs von Genesis und weiteren alten Prog-Rock-Helden mit einer All-Star-Formation auf die Bühne zu bringen. Er gründete kurzerhand mit einer Handvoll gleichgesinnten Musikern die Gruppe ProgJect und im Jahr 2022 wurden erste Daten in den USA gespielt. 2023 folgten weitere gefeierte Auftritte. Aufgrund der Tourpläne der verschiedenen Musiker kam es schliesslich zu Wechseln im Line-Up. Im Jahr 2024 touren ProgJect im Sommer durch Kanada und kommen im September nach Europa. Neben Mover sind Gitarrist Mike Keneally (Frank Zappa, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Devin Townsend), Keyboarder Ryo Okumoto (Spock’s Beard, Asia, Phil Collins, Chris Squire) und Bassist Pete Griffin (Dweezil Zappa, Edgar Winter, Dethklok) am Start. Mit dem Sänger und Multiinstrumentalisten Alessandro Del Vecchio (Star One, Vanden Plas, New Trolls, James Labrie, Steve Lukather) wurde der passende Frontmann gefunden. Wie eine fein assortierte Prog-Rock-Jukebox spielt sich Jonathan Movers hochkarätiges ProgJect in den oft mehr als zwei Stunden dauernden Shows durch ausgesuchte Klassiker der Prog-Rock-Geschichte.

THE PERFECT PROG ROCK JUKEBOX
The ultimate Prog Rock Experience is coming to Europe! Under the name ProgJect, drummer Jonathan Mover formed an all-star band a few years ago that makes all old-school proggies snap their fingers. Together with Mike Keneally, Ryo Okumoto, Alessandro Del Vecchio, and Pete Griffin, he presents a superlative set on stage with songs from Genesis, YES, ELP, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Rush, Gentle Giant, and many others.
Five years ago, drummer Jonathan Mover (GTR, Marillion, Aretha Franklin, Alice Cooper, Joe Satriani, Mike Oldfield, The Tubes) received an emergency call from Genesis tribute band The Musical Box. Their drummer had to drop out just before the US tour, and Mover quickly stepped in for him. "I hadn't had that much fun on stage in a long time and remembered the time when I started playing prog rock," says Mover. "I felt fifteen again and felt the fire burning in me that flared up when I first picked up the drumsticks." Thus, the idea matured in him to bring songs from Genesis and other old prog rock heroes to the stage with an all-star formation. He quickly founded the group ProgJect with a handful of like-minded musicians, and in 2022, the first dates were played in the USA. More celebrated performances followed in 2023. Due to the touring schedules of the various musicians, there were eventually changes in the line-up. In 2024, ProgJect will tour Canada in the summer and come to Europe in September. In addition to Mover, guitarist Mike Keneally (Frank Zappa, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Devin Townsend), keyboardist Ryo Okumoto (Spock’s Beard, Asia, Phil Collins, Chris Squire), and bassist Pete Griffin (Dweezil Zappa, Edgar Winter, Dethklok) are on board. The right frontman was found in singer and multi-instrumentalist Alessandro Del Vecchio (Star One, Vanden Plas, New Trolls, James Labrie, Steve Lukather). Like a finely assorted prog rock jukebox, Jonathan Mover's high-profile ProgJect plays through selected classics of prog rock history in often more than two hours long shows.
