TEN JINN

                                                                     TEN JINN
Crossover Prog

United States

This is a new American band that plays full and complicated prog . The sound is thick and intricate while being melodic and interesting as well. The musicianship is excellent. Stanley Whitaker from HAPPY THE MAN performs a rich Progressive that is all but straightforward. The vocal lines remind of GENTLE GIANT ; as well as the elaborated orchestration, the multiple breaks and other ruptures evoke HAPPY THE MAN.
