KNIGHT AREA

                               KNIGHT AREA


Neo-Prog 
Netherlands







Knight Area was founded in 2004 after Gerben Klazinga released the first Knight Area album: The Sun Also Rises. This album was a project of Gerben, who wrote all the music, and many musicians participated in the recordings of the album. The album was a worldwide success and as a consequence Gerben formed a band to play live. A new album was released in 2007 (Under a New Sign) after the band successfully played the European and American stages. The album was a real band effort which got very good reviews worldwide. In September 2009 the third album will be released and a short European festival tour will follow.
