Press Quotes:
“This is infectious, with no cure in sight. The arrangements are tight, everyone bounces off each other, and is one of the most poptastic progressive album one is likely to come across”
5/5 Kev Rowland // Prog Archives
"Memorable hooks, gravity-defying instrumental prowess and a kitchen sink move toward rock If Bela Fleck and Frank Zappa had a love child in outer space, they might grow up to sound like these guys do.

Opening: Fools Can Be Kings
Fools Can Be Kings is a northern New Jersey rock band, consisting of bassist/frontman Rick Maddolin, drummer Zaki Ali, and guitarist Johnnez Pantanilla. With a list of musical influences including the likes of Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muse, and Animals As Leaders, Fools Can Be Kings combines aggression, groove, and melody to deliver dynamic and powerful performances.
In the early 2000s, childhood friends Rick and Johnnez decided to form a rock band while attending elementary school together. Their band would go on to perform at local parades, festivals, and house parties in the north Jersey and New York City areas. After nearly 15 years of different band competitions, line-up changes, and rehearsal spaces, the band finally achieved full form as a trio with the official addition of Zaki into the band roster. Under the name Fools Can Be Kings, the band would continue to perform at numerous NJ/NYC venues, such as Debonair Music Hall, Roxy & Dukes, and Governors Island and build a reputation for having a rhythmic, rocking sound, mixed with elements of funk and metal.
The band is currently working on their debut album, due to be released early 2019.
