Steve Thorne is a prolific singer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from England. He has been the founding member of Colony Earth and The Salamander Project, as well as playing as a solo artist.
Steve's debut album Emotional Creatures Part One, released in 2005, is a great combination of melodic songs, varying influences from Folk to Indie and to Prog Rock, which in these, you can hear notable bands such as Jethro Tull, Peter Gabriel, Tears for Fears, as well as some of modern day artists. Steve was wise enough, to call a good bunch of very talented musicians, as well as having a big fame in the prog world, like Tony Levin (King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, Liquid Tension), Nick D'Virgilio (Spock's Beard, Genesis, Tears For Fears), Geoff Downes (Asia, Buggles, YES) and some members from IQ and Jadis, which by the way, Steve has contributed to Jadis.
Steve's second album, Emotional Creatures Part Two, follows the same varied style, with again, a wide range of musicians, from well known Prog bands. Somewhat repetitive in ideas, but still, clearly showing a different album.
Steve might not be your usual Prog solo artist, featuring complex structures, nor excessive amount of virtuosity, despite the wide range of musicians contributing. Still a highly enjoyable songwriter, often compared to the mellower songs of Porcupine Tree. « hide |
