Bassist Jonas Reingold joins the podcast to talk about the new Karmakanic album 'Transmutation', touring with Steve Hackett, Cruise to the Edge & more.   Transmutation releases on 7th March 2025 and will be available on CD, vinyl, and streaming platforms. Celebrating independent artistry, all formats will be released on Jonas's own label, Reingold Records: https://www.jonasreingold.se/ Reingold has enlisted a stellar lineup of world-class musicians to bring his vision to life. Among them is his longtime friend and musical companion, Steve Hackett (Genesis), who delivers breathtaking guitar work throughout the album. Drum legends Simon Phillips (Toto, The Who, Judas Priest), Nick D'Virgilio (Big Big Train, Spock's Beard, Mr. Big), and Craig Blundell (Steven Wilson, Steve Hackett, Frost) provide a rhythm section of extraordinary depth. For the first time, Reingold collaborates with vocalist John Mitchell (Asia, Lonely Robot, Frost, Arena), whose gritty, soulful voice perfectly complements Reingold's melodic compositions. Additionally, Randy McStine delivers lead guitar firepower, marking their first collaboration since The Fringe in 2016. The album also features an all-star lineup, including Lalle Larsson, Andy Tillison, Tomas Bodin, Luke Machin, Göran Edman, Rob Townsend, Roger King, and Krister Jonsson, among others. Recorded across Nashville, Los Angeles, Germany, and Austria, the album delivers a breathtaking sonic experience, mixed by five-time Grammy-winning engineer Chris Lord-Alge (Rolling Stones, Muse, Tina Turner, Prince) at his Los Angeles studio, MIX LA.

Andy Tillison from Progressive Rock band 'The Tangent' Talks to Phil Aston about the new album 'To Follow Polaris' Phil Aston | Now Spinning Magazine

Andy Tillison from The Tangent returns to talk to me about the new album To Follow Polaris, which is a unique record in the band's catalog. The primary reason for this is because it's all Andy this time. With his bandmates' busy schedules, Andy decided to have a go at a Tangent album himself, playing all the parts and trying to get into the headspace of his bandmates. The result is another solid release from The Tangent and it was kind of Andy to take the time to tell me about what went into making it. Learn more about The Tangent at https://www.thetangent.org.

Andy Tillison of The Tangent talks about the new album 'To Follow Polaris', how he made the new album on his own, and calling it The Tangent (For One). The new album is out on May 10th on InsideOutMusic.

This time I welcome Andy Tillison of The Tangent as my special guest for the 50th Episode of Bleeding Edge Interviews! He chatted with me about To Follow Polaris, the 13th studio album from The Tangent, and a very unusual album in itself!

Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I'm your host Ray Shasho. Andy Tillison is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, and the leader of the progressive rock group The Tangent. The Tangent, hailing from Northern England, weaves cinematic and lyrical music, often addressing observations about our world. Their compositions defy traditional prog rock norms, embracing influences from various genres, including jazz, modern pop, progressive rock and more. Notably, the band avoids the stereotypical 12-string acoustic sound associated with classic prog rock, preferring a fresh and eclectic approach. The band's philosophy centers around openness to contemporary bands and styles, transcending the boundaries set by the '70s prog rock icons. Their debut album, The Music that Died Alone, released in 2003, garnered attention as a “supergroup” project, although Tillison prefers to describe it as “a good idea” rather than a supergroup. Through personnel changes and fluidity, The Tangent continues to create music that defies conventions and resonates with listeners. The Tangent recently announced the release of a new studio album ‘To Follow Polaris' on May 10th, 2024.  The album was produced between January and November of 2023. The brand-new release features Andy Tillison using his multiple keyboards system but adds to the mix his first ever released performance on Bass Guitar and his second on stick driven (electronic) drums. Add electric and acoustic guitars and an electronic wind controller and this is a full band recording in every sense of the word. PLEASE WELCOME MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST/SINGER/SONGWRITER/COMPOSER PRODUCER AND ENGINEER OF PROGRESSIVE JAZZ/ ROCK GROUP THE TANGENT, ANDY TILLISON TO INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS … The Tangent recently announced the release of the new studio album ‘To Follow Polaris' on May 10th, 2024. That's not necessarily a surprise, that's what the band are known for. But at the same time, it's something else too. As Andy jokes, playing on the Jaws strapline, he says "well this time it's actually no personnel". Today, a brand-new track aptly titled ‘The Single' has been released, and you can watch the video here: https://youtu.be/mwdbLOerLH4   PREORDER THE NEW ALBUM BY THE TANGENT ENTITLED ‘TO FOLLOW POLARIS' Officially released on May 10th, 2024.  To Follow Polaris' will be available as a Limited Deluxe Collector's Edition CD Mediabook (including bonus track and extensive 24-page booklet, Gatefold 180g 2LP vinyl (also including bonus track), & as Digital Album.

Tête pensante de The Tangent depuis deux décennies, Andy Tillison est un inspiré troubadour des temps modernes dont chaque composition musicale invite à un voyage empreint d'onirisme. Le claviériste et chanteur aborde ainsi chacun de ses morceaux fleuves tel un conte dont les paroles, perpétuel questionnement sur le monde, ont le mérite de faire tout autant travailler l'esprit que l'ouïe. Fer de lance d'une prog rock anglaise toute aussi inspirée que celle de ses illustres ainés, le ménestrel Tillison nous ouvre les portes de son royaume enchanté. Faites vos valises, on se fait la belle avec The Tangent !

Always a lovely time...

Comienza nuestro 5º año de existencia con un programa harto extraño lleno de curiosidades matemáticas, distorsiones sónico-cromáticas, mentes sincrónicas y estados alterados de conciencia. Sumergidos en nuestro control habitualmente descontrolado (quizás esta vez un poco más alborotado de lo habitual), recorreremos un amplio espectro de interesantes novedades que provocarán no pocos debates intensos entre los miembros del equipo. Comenzaremos con dos trabajos debidos al genio de Andy Tillison, el publicado en solitario a finales del 2014 como Andy Tillison Multiplex y el más reciente bajo el sello de su banda, The Tangent. Continuaremos con las novedades recién llegadas de Mandala, Crooked Mouth, Life 2.0, Solar Project, Sylvium, Syncromind Project y terminaremos con la opera prima de una banda que ha desatado pasiones entre buena parte del equipo: Native Construct. En el terreno nacional hablaremos del primer EP de una joven banda de Xativa, Kai Mars, que viene pegando fuerte con un potente sonido y buen hacer. Participarán en el próximo festival Chu Fast Prog que se celebrará los próximos 14 y 15 de mayo en Valencia, junto a otras bandas amigas del programa como Psychosound, Pervy Perkin y Cheetos Magazine, así como otras que muy pronto tendremos en Subterranea, como Noah Histeria, Morgana vs Morgana, Ciconia y The Third Grade. Todo un festivalazo que no hay que perderse, al que asistiremos algunos miembros del equipo. Chu Fast Prog es una valiente inciativa creada por la promotora On Fire, que está apostando muy fuerte por apoyar a las bandas progresivas nacionales, toda una loable iniciativa que se merece todo nuestro apoyo. Buena música, intensos debates, grandes novedades y muchas risas, los ingredientes básicos de un programa de Subterranea. ¡Que lo disfrutéis!
