MR. SO & SO
Neo-Prog
United Kingdom
MR SO & SO were a band from the North West of England in the late 1990's (1992 - 2000) who released three albums and gigged extensively in the UK including a support slot on MARILLION's 'This Stange Engine' UK tour. The music is similar to MARILLION and PALLAS with a strong IT BITES influence. The band were Kieran Twist - keyboards, Leon Parr - drums, David Foster - guitar and Shaun McGowan - vocals and bass guitar. Charlotte Evans joined on backing vocals for the bands third album "The Overlap". The band split in 2000, but reconvened as a working unit during 2006, recording some new material and performing live. A new studio release is expected during 2007.
Of the three discs "Paraphernalia" (Pagan Media 1992) the first was OK but the second "Compendium" (Cyclops 1994) and final "The Overlap" (Dorian 1998) are excellent and some of the best UK prog music of the late 1990's.
Highly recommended..!
