Neal Morse Band & The Flower Kings European tour 2013 Feb 22: Stockholm Bryggarsalen, Sweden Feb 23: Malmo KB, Sweden
To celebrate "INSIDE OUT MUSIC 20 YEARS ANNIVERSARY" Progressive rock superstars NEAL MORSE and ROINE STOLT take both their bands on a world tour together in selected cities, in spring 2013, for an evening of sunny symphonic prog. Two bands will share the stage #8211; THE FLOWER KINGS with epic new album "Banks Of Eden" and NEAL MORSE with his latest top shelf prog-rocking offering "Momentum" - this double bill will offer an evening of some of the best, most energetic and most melodic and vital progressive rock on the planet since the heyday of ELP, Pink Floyd, Yes and Genesis!
Mike Portnoy will be part of the Neal Morse Band for their European tour with the Flower Kings, the drummer has confirmed.
The double-top Prog-sponsored tour already reunited Transatlantic collaborators Morse and Roine Stolt #8211; now another member of the supergroup will be part of their February-March trek.
Portnoy says in a brief statement: #8220;Good news for my prog fans in Europe! I#8217;m happy to announce I will be playing with Neal Morse for the NM/Flower Kings tour.#8221;
Flower Kings mainman Stolt recently told Prog Magazine the shows will consist of members of both bands guesting on each others#8217; tracks, with a Transatlantic-themed finale every night.
He said: #8220;We want to make a very special tour #8211; to revive a bit of the early spirit of prog, when music was about jamming, friendship and fun. I can see lots of cool interaction that will culminate in a grand finale of Transatlantic music every night.#8221;
