Pinnick Gales Pridgen

Pinnick Gales Pridgen is: dUg Pinnick (King s X), Eric Gales (Eric Gales Band, Lauryn Hill) and Thomas Pridgen (ex-The Mars Volta)<br> *It was built upon raw energy.*says Pinnick. *This record is three guys who said, Let s go for it. *<br>On the band s debut, each member of PGP infuses the material with his own set of musical influences, transforming his individual instrument into a lead instrument. The absolutely stunning musicianship frames the melodies of these songs and catapults the music into the scattered realms of psychedelic blues, hard rock, and progressive soul/R&B.<br>PGP show some of their influences with their brilliant version of seminal power trio Cream s 'Sunshine Of Your Love'. Pinnick says, 'Our version has a different vibe: it s tuned down, real low.'<br>'Eric and I have been thinking about working together for the last 15 years on a project, but we never got around to it,' says Pinnick. 'This is like a match made in heaven.' <br> 'I think the record has a combination of all of the good things about our playing,' says Pridgen. <br> 'This is just colossal,' Gales concludes. This is just some slammin stuff."<br>Produced by guitar specialist Mike Varney, this album is for fans of Tool, Audioslave, The Who, Living Colour, Stevie Wonder, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Liquid Tension Experiment, Baroness, Soilent Green and Mastodon.
